This paper introduces a novel approach to resolve Carl Hempel's statistical ambiguity problem in inductive-statistical inference. By leveraging Nancy Cartwright's definition of causes and introducing 'Causal Rules,' the authors propose a semantic probabilistic inference procedure. This procedure refines causal rules to derive Maximally Specific Causal Relationships (MSCRs), which are proven to yield consistent predictions, thereby solving the ambiguity problem. The developed system offers a probabilistic causal learning framework applicable to Causal AI and Causal Machine Learning. AI
