Ergebnis für "Fake" in Wissenschaft & Technik

Was ist Fakt, was ist Fiktion? Ein Fakt ist eine wissenschaftlich überprüfbare Tatsache. Eine Meinung hingegen ist das Ergebnis persönlicher Überzeugungen und Ansichten. Aber welche Rolle spielen dann subjektive Deutungen in der Wissenschaft? Und wann wird aus einer Einzelmeinung wissenschaftlicher Konsens? Neurowissenschaftler und Bestsellerautor Jens Foell widmet sich in seinem neuen Buch dem Spannungsfeld von Fakten und Fiktionen in der Naturwissenschaft: Er folgt dem Gang wissenschaftlicher Erkenntnis in Psychologie, Physik, Chemie und Medizin von der Beobachtung über die Hypothesenbildung bis zur Kommunikation.

It dawned on me one day that most of the scare stories in the media today are based on things that are either invisible, like CO2 and radiation, or very remote, like polar bears and coral reefs. Thus, the average person cannot observe and verify the truth of these claims for themselves. They must rely on activists, the media, politicians, and scientists - all of whom have a huge financial and/or political interest in the subject - to tell them the truth.

Storytelling, a tradition that built human civilization, may soon destroy it Humans are storytelling animals. Stories are what make our societies possible. Countless books celebrate their virtues. But Jonathan Gottschall, an expert on the science of stories, argues that there is a dark side to...

Un chimico e un astrofisico (no, non è l’inizio di una barzelletta) navigano sulla zattera del pensiero scientifico attraverso l’insidioso mare dei media e della comunicazione. Sommerso ogni giorno da una quantità tale di dati, numeri, immagini e opinioni il nostro cervello – già di suo pigro e lontano dall’essere perfetto – rischia costantemente di perdere la rotta. Ma come si fa a impedire questa deriva cerebrale? Come aiutare la nostra mente a trovare punti di riferimento sicuri per attraversare indenne la tempesta del sovraccarico di notizie?

Neuroscientist Amir Raz shares decades of research and case studies to show how suggestion changes the brain and shapes our behavior—and how we can protect ourselves from and harness suggestibility in our own lives. Suggestions can make cheap wine taste like Château Margaux, warp our...

People are used to seeing "fake physics" in science fiction - concepts like faster-than-light travel, antigravity, and time travel to name a few. The fiction label ought to be a giveaway, but some SF writers - especially those with a background in professional science - are so adept at "technobabble" that it can be difficult to work out what is fake and what is real. To confuse matters further, Isaac Asimov's 1948 piece about the fictitious time-traveling substance thiotimoline was written, not as a short story, but in the form of a spoof research paper.

Stalin, Mao, Hitler, Mussolini, and other dictators routinely doctored photographs so that the images aligned with their messages. They erased people who were there, added people who were not, and manipulated backgrounds. They knew if they changed the visual record, they could change history. Once, altering images required hours in the darkroom; today, it can be done with a keyboard and mouse. Because photographs are so easily faked, fake photos are everywhere - supermarket tabloids, fashion magazines, political ads, and social media.

You'd think we were living in the golden age of science and reason. But the truth is far more sinister, says Austin Ruse. We're actually living in the age of the low information voter, easily misled by all-too-convincing false statistics and studies. In Fake Science, Ruse debunks so-called "facts" used to advance political causes one after the other, revealing how poorly they stand up to actual science.

Paul Shapiro gives you a “captivating” (John Mackey, former CEO of Whole Foods Market) front-row seat for the race to create and commercialize cleaner, safer, sustainable meat—real meat—without the animals. Since the dawn of Homo sapiens some quarter million years ago, animals have...

Nos están contando otra gran mentira, y ya no hay marcha atrás. No nos han preguntado ni dejado votar al respecto de si queremos asumir las consecuencias de una agenda que parece imparable. Y casi todo el mundo habla de ella asumiendo que es la nueva biblia, y sus predicadores los nuevos dioses. Pero donde hay dioses también hay demonios. A veces, el bien tiene que remangarse y actuar orillando sus razones. A veces, lo que se presenta como el mal es la única salvación, y lo que se presenta como el bien solo es el camino pavimentado de buenas intenciones hacia la esclavitud. Sin moral, sin...

"On ne peut rien faire pour lutter contre le réchauffement climatique." "On vivra bientôt sur Mars !" "Nous n'utilisons que 10 % de notre cerveau." Les fake news ont la vie dure ! Au point qu'on peut toutes et tous se laisser piéger. Pour vous aider à y voir plus clair, le média "Curieux !" a passé au crible de la science 100 fake news sur des sujets aussi divers que l'alimentation, le cerveau, l'environnement ou la sexualité, dans un livre audio ludique et richement illustré.

Ammettiamolo: la realtà se ne infischia di ciò in cui crediamo. Tuttavia, le nostre convinzioni trasformano il modo in cui percepiamo il mondo. Ma dove nascono e come si diffondono le credenze? Che cosa ci porta a sostenere le idee più insolite o totalmente assurde, a scambiare per prove inossidabili semplici suggestioni, illusioni o, al massimo, ideologie e atti di fede? Perché finiamo per contraddire anche l’evidenza dei fatti? E chi coltiva le convinzioni più estreme è solo un pazzo o piuttosto una vittima della manipolazione dei social?

This audiobook explains based on science and facts how you can be the solution to the big crises we will face to cover our basic needs (food, water, health). It’s just a question of time before the next economic crisis. In the coming years, we will all directly suffer from climate change in one way or another including our kids and grandkids. The rich get richer, banks steal from us, while so many don’t even have decent food or health care.... There is an alternative system in which you can lead toward a solution to these crises.

Nell'era della superficilità dell'informazione, in cui imperversano le fake news e al ragionamento critico si antepongono presunzione e ignoranza, la scienza sembra essere sotto attacco. Ma non è che un paradosso, perché mai come oggi la ricerca scientifica è stata così forte e affidabile. Edoardo Boncinelli e Antonio Ereditato, due scienziati italiani in prima linea nei rispettivi campi di indagine – la genetica e la fisica delle particelle –, ci raccontano che la scienza è bellezza, creatività, gioia della ricerca e della scoperta.

Bliv klogere på fake news i denne podcastserie! Ritzau og lex.dk står bag en række online-arrangementer om fake news og misinformation, hvor Danmarks førende forskere gør os klogere på hvad der fake og hvad der er fakta.

When does a scientific discovery become accepted fact? Why have scientific facts become easy to deny? And what can we do about it? In The Workshop and the World, philosopher and science historian Robert P. Crease answers these questions by describing the origins of our scientific infrastructure - the “workshop” - and the role of 10 of the world’s greatest thinkers in shaping it. As today’s politicians and government officials increasingly accuse scientists of dishonesty, conspiracy, and even hoaxes, engaged citizens wonder how we got to this level of distrust....
