Frank Cabrera's research focuses on the philosophical implications of contemporary issues, particularly concerning information, knowledge, and societal structures. His work investigates the challenges posed by AI recruitment algorithms, exploring the potential for dehumanization in automated hiring processes. Cabrera also examines the phenomenon of "fake news," analyzing epistemic vices and the market dynamics that enable the spread of misinformation. He has published on inference to the best explanation, a fundamental concept in epistemology, and explores its applications and overview. Additionally, his scholarship delves into the nature of epistemic anxiety and its potential role as an intellectual virtue.
