Hempel himself accepted the paradoxical conclusion, arguing that the reason the result appears paradoxical is because we possess prior information without which the observation of a non-black non-raven would indeed provide evidence that all ravens are black.

Scientists also use thought experiments when particular physical experiments are impossible to conduct ( Carl Gustav Hempel labeled these sorts of experiment " theoretical experiments-in-imagination "), such as Einstein's thought experiment of chasing a light beam, leading to Special Relativity.

Salmon attempted to provide an alternative account for some of the problems with Hempel and Oppenheim's model by developing his statistical relevance model.

The question which then arises is whether the paradox is to be understood in the context of absolutely no background information ( as Hempel suggests ), or in the context of the background information which we actually possess regarding ravens and black objects, or with regard to all possible configurations of background information.

Hempel, on the other hand, insists that it is our background knowledge itself which is the red herring, and that we should consider induction with respect to a condition of perfect ignorance.
