A Roadmap for the Digital Age.\n\nCritical thinki ng is often presented as our first line of defense against disinformation and manipulation. But what does it mean to think critically when we face c omplex issues\, such as the effects of a new vaccine\, the long-term devel opment of advanced AI technologies or the impacts of a military interventi on? In such cases\, should we rely on our own judgment\, or place our trus t in experts? Are there situations in which thinking autonomously and crit ically can\, paradoxically\, lead us away from the truth? After all\, peop le drawn to false conspiratorial beliefs often insist that they are simply exercising critical thinking. In this lecture\, I argue that the Enlighte nment philosophers were right to emphasize rational autonomy and critical inquiry\, but that these ideas must be balanced with intellectual humility and an awareness that we should not always think by ourselves and do our own research.\n DTSTART:20260529T173000Z DTEND:20260529T184500Z SUMMARY:Critical Thinking and Intellectual Humility.
