Our history department is building on its strengths in history of science & technology. Pass it on to anyone who might be interested. (Just downstairs you also have a philosophy department that likes science and technology, too.)

Why bad philosophy is stopping progress in physics
Theoretical physicists are in thrall to a misguided mindset that allows viable ideas to be advanced only by overturning what already exists.

Attention metascience & AI enthusiasts: SSHRC is offering $140K/2yr postdoc fellowships, and I'd be happy to sponsor someone to work in my lab at UofT. If you're interested in how AI might transform scientific practice (for better or worse), apply by April 8. Let's question everything together.

Inexplicably, US administration has launched an unprecedented assault on science, on research institutions & on vital international organizations & initiatives. An assault on science anywhere is an assault on science everywhere; the global community must unite 🧪 www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Chance and randomness
Francesca Zaffora Blando & Krzysztof Mierzewski

Abstract: Probability theory plays a crucial role in science, from inductive learning and statistical inference to information theory, to economics and decision theory, to physics, just to name a few. It also gives rise to some of the deepest and most captivating philosophical puzzles. Are probabilities in the world or in our heads? What, if anything, is the relationship between objective chances, frequencies, and subjective degrees of belief? Can there be non-trivial objective probabilities in a universe governed by deterministic physical laws? Should a theory of probability be grounded in a prior account of randomness or, vice-versa, should we think of randomness as requiring a prior understanding of probabilities? Can computational considerations shed light on our concepts of chance and randomness? In this course, we will explore these questions and more.
