Gettier Problem
The Gettier Problem is a philosophical issue that challenges the traditional definition of knowledge as justified true belief. According to this definition, for someone to know something, three conditions must be met: the belief must be true, the person must believe it, and there must be justification for that belief. However, the Gettier Problem presents scenarios where these conditions are satisfied, yet it seems incorrect to say that the person truly knows the information.
In these scenarios, individuals have justified true beliefs that arise from luck or coincidence rather than sound reasoning. This suggests that the traditional definition of knowledge is insufficient, prompting philosophers to explore alternative definitions and criteria for what constitutes true knowledge.
