Abstract

In this paper we investigate the implications of recent scientific discoveries in animal perception on the philosophical views regarding epistemic entitlement. We show that the predictive processing (PP) model of perception offers new insight into the connection between veridicality and the immediate, instance-individuated perceptual experience; and we argue that the two come apart if we accept that the PP model is on the right track.
