Since you bring up Einstein, it's worth noting that he felt like he had disproved Kant, yet he claimed to be hugely influenced by Hume, an alleged empiricist (whom Kant even explicitly called out), though Hume's "empiricism" is largely misunderstood. He overtly understood that we don't directly perceive the real world, for instance, as have many philosophers since and including Plato.
