Okay. But criticism of the principle of induction has a long history, lol. Hume, Russell, Karl Popper ... It's very funny story inductivist turkey: turkey used to receive food every day and decided to conclude with inductive rigor receive food every day. So this turkey predicted that the next day would also have food for him. But that day was Christmas day, lol. This criticism of inductivism is Russell.
