	Description:		Claudine Tiercelin Métaphysique et philosophie de la connaissance Année 2022-2023 Colloque - Virtual and Augmented Realities: Epistemological and Metaphysical Issues : Why BIVs Would Not Be (Much) Deceived (and Would Learn a Lot) Intervenant(s) Benoit Gaultier, University of Zurich Résumé My aim in this talk is to examine Chalmers' veridicalism, and more precisely i) to indicate a reason to doubt the cogency of one of his' arguments for veridicalism, ii) to argue that if BIVs' ordinary beliefs are true for the reasons indicated by Chalmers, then BIVs' (metaphysical) beliefs about the fundamental nature of reality also are true, and iii) to advance that it could be that BIVs' are right about the fundamental nature of reality while being ignorant of it. Présentation Virtual Reality technology affords its users a strongly immersive and interactive experience of computer-generated environments, through a dedicated headset. With Augmented Reality devices, 3D computer-generated imagery is projected onto physical space, thereby "augmenting" the user's surroundings with an overlay of virtual entities. These "Extended Reality" (XR) technologies are likely to become a part of our everyday life in the near future. They also raise a host of fascinating issues, which have increasingly been discussed in the recent philosophical literature. This international conference will investigate the metaphysical and epistemological questions raised by XR technologies. Le colloque est intégralement en anglais et a eu lieu les 5 et 6 juin au Collège de France
