User:Sztakipedia/Computer Epistemology

Knowledge and Computing is a book about computer epistemology written by Tibor Vamos.

Computer Epistemology is a very special branch of epistemology since it deals with the possible approaches to the knowledge of computers.

All the key questions of epistemology resurfaces in this topic. However, since computers are subjects of the engineering discipline, many of these are not purely analytical questions any more. These questions concern how we should design Computer Epistemology itself:

What should computer knowledge be? How is it structured? How do we make it acquired by computers? How do we make computers to use it well?

There are, of course rather philosophical questions left:

What is the ontological status of the elements of computer knowledge? What is the relation between computer and human knowledge? How can computer knowledge be verified? Category:Knowledge_representation
