Tools for exploring philosophy of mind, applied ethics, free will, and epistemological foundations — drawn from MIT OCW and UT Austin curricula.
Explore the mind-body problem: what dualism and physicalism each claim about consciousness, what the hard problem is, and what kinds of evidence — if any — could settle the debate.
Pick an ethical scenario and work through it using utilitarian, deontological, and virtue ethics frameworks. See where they agree, where they diverge, and what the stakes of each position are.
Read a scenario and decide: is the person morally responsible? The tool traces compatibilist and incompatibilist reasoning through the case — what each position says and why it matters for ethics.
Pick an ordinary belief and trace its epistemic justification — what skeptical challenges can be raised, how Descartes, Hume, and Kant would approach it, and what's left standing after scrutiny.
Explore metaethical positions — moral subjectivism, relativism, and realism — and see what each claims about the status of moral facts and what the disagreement means for how we make moral arguments.
