BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The prompt presents a question about identifying which branch of epistemology is associated with the given statements.
Option 1: empiricism. The two bullet points emphasize knowledge arising from sensory evidence and experiences, and the claim that without sensory input we know nothing. This aligns with empiricism, which holds that knowledge comes primarily from sensory experience and observation.
Option 2: rationalism. Rationalism argues that reason and intellect can yield knowledge independently of sensory experience. The statements here stress sensory evidence as the source of knowledge, which does not fit rationalism.
Option 3: local scepticism. Local scepticism questions knowledge within a specific domain or context, rather than making a blanket claim about all knowledge. The given statements assert a general claim about knowledge derived from senses, not a restricted domain, so local scepticism is not a precise fit.
Option 4: idealism. Idealism contends that reality is mentally constructed or dependent on the mind. The statements focus on sensory evidence as the basis of knowledge rather than the nature of reality being mind-dependent, making idealism unlikely as the correct branch here.
Option 5: global scepticism. Global scepticism denies the possibility of knowledge in all domains. While the statements touch on knowledge from senses, they do not present a thorough denial of all knowledge universally; instead they describe how knowledge is obtained, which points away from the radical stance of global scepticism.
In summary, the statements most closely reflect empiricism, since sensory experience is portrayed as the source of knowledge and as essential for knowing anything at all.
