    No literally the course material has the word "belief". It means "at this instant what is the estimate of ground truth".

    Those shaky blue lines that show where your Tesla on autopilot thinks the lane is? That's it's belief.

    English and software have lots of overloaded terms.

      Alright I know you’re temp banned but let’s just leave this to remind you that - whatever your opinion of philosophers - in a territorial pissing match between philosophers and…a software course you took one time…the philosophers, who between them have a very different and would you believe it somewhat richer account of doxa (look at that, it’s even in Greek), probably have kind of an edge here.
