Because it is possible to invent or imagine new things without resorting to endless random walks or blind trial and error. Induction isn’t probabilistic. It’s the origin of all discovery and based in sussing out what’s important in patterns, selectively proposing causal mechanisms and testing those hypotheses by following priors and implications — an essential basis for original and creative thought that no purely probabilistic engine can employ.
