The Problem of Induction (Hume)

The Problem of Induction, as presented by David Hume, questions how we can justify believing that past experiences reliably predict future events. For example, just because the sun has risen every day doesn't guarantee it will rise tomorrow. Our assumptions about consistent patterns are based on past observations, but there's no logical proof that these patterns will continue. This raises a fundamental philosophical issue about the foundation of our knowledge—how can we be certain that the future will resemble the past?
