Empiricists are individuals or philosophers who advocate the philosophy of empiricism, which emphasizes the role of experience and evidence obtained through the senses in the formation of knowledge. This approach argues that all knowledge is ultimately rooted in sensory experience, as opposed to being derived from innate ideas or purely logical reasoning. Empiricism is often contrasted with rationalism, which posits that reason and intellectual deduction can lead to knowledge independent of sensory experience.
