Is knowledge not just the reliable predictability of a model’s outputs based on inputs?
I.e “you know it is noon” means you can predict that when you look outside the window it will be light, the church bell will be ringing, the clock will point to 12 etc. One or more of these corroborating factors provides that knowledge to you (eg you can still know it’s noon if the clock is broken because you can hear the church bells and see the sun above your head etc)
