What key vulnerability in the classical Tripartite Theory of Knowledge (Justified True Belief) was exposed by Edmund Gettier in 1963?

A belief can be justified and true, yet fail to count as knowledge due to epistemic luck or coincidental truth. Justification is impossible because all justification chains must either regress infinitely or end in arbitrary dogmatism. True belief alone is sufficient for knowledge because justification adds no additional epistemic value. Perceptual beliefs are inherently unreliable because sense experience can never guarantee external reality.

Correct Answer:

A belief can be justified and true, yet fail to count as knowledge due to epistemic luck or coincidental truth.
