What can philosophy teach me other than that I'll never know anything?

different ways to live your life as a moral agent

But how can you know that for sure?

How to reason.
Or, if you want to be cynical, how to disguise your preconcieved values and judgements as rational arguments designed and perhaps even capable of convincing those initially differently inclined than you.

How to examine your preconceptions, rise above the illusion and doxa, to develop a coherent and complete internal narrative of your life that dispels ambiguity and false beliefs.

That sounds exactly like knowing that I'll never know anything.

It means striving for the truth, not any preconceived notions you were thought. But whatever floats your boat.

It'll teach you to detect when others don't know anything even though they act and think as if they do.

Ultimately, philosophy is the path to your freedom and self determination. Examining ideas to their full logical conclusions and roots you inevitably find out about your own commitments and ways of thinking. Philosophy is a way to free yourself from being the product of mass society and becoming a genuine individual.

No, if you want to be cynical then it teaches you that there is nothing wrong with eating dog food, sleeping under a bridge and urinating on dickheads.
