28 | Whose fault is it?

  • Summary

  • How do we decide whether someone should be held responsible for something? We sit down with cognitive scientist Katarina Kovačević to talk about ascribing responsibility, and how our intuitions about responsibility shape behavior. We chat about the differences between knowing and not knowing what we're doing is wrong, versus the grey area of having had access to the knowledge but avoiding it. We also cover Katarina's work on victim blaming, what all of this means about our relationship with the legal systems we live under, and how to account for situations where a machine (like AI) is involved. Joining us as a co-host is philosopher Pelin Kasar (our guest from Episode 6). Guest: Katarina Kovačević Co-host: Pelin Kasar
