Abstract
If computers or robots were to replace human scientists, should they adhere to our established principles of the Philosophy of Science? We have been taught to value consistency, Popperian falsifiability, and Occam’s razor (also known as the principle of parsimony). While these traditional philosophical principles are valuable, they might limit the exploration of complex phenomena that require more nuanced or multifaceted approaches. Specific formal contexts exist where these principles falter when confronted with reality, as traditional scientific methods may reduce cognitive power. This paper formally highlights the limitations of traditional scientific and philosophical principles through the mathematics of computability (which will be considered softly).
