A condition of what an agent knows with respect to facts material to a decision, here the engineer's knowledge of a disproportionate flooding impact risk discovered during report preparation.
Inherited from EpistemicState · note
A condition of what an agent knows, believes, or is uncertain of with respect to facts material to a decision. As a content kind it captures the agent's knowledge state, the Aristotelian and Sarmiento epistemic condition for responsibility: an agent is answerable for conduct in proportion to what the agent knew or should have known. Its deontic relevance is that knowledge conditions the obligations governing informed decision and decision-under-uncertainty.
