black swan fallacy
名词 n.
英文释义
名词 n.
-
The logical error of discounting the possibility of something because no evidence has yet been observed for it.
— The black swan fallacy holds that if all you have ever observed in your field research are white swans, you might be tempted to conclude 'All swans are white'. However, a black swan was discovered in Australia. Therefore, all it takes is one black swan to falsify the general statement about the universality of white swans.
