Target entity: Münchhausen trilemma
Context triple: [Hans Albert, knownFor, Münchhausen trilemma]
  • A. Hempel's paradox
    Hempel's paradox is a famous problem in the philosophy of science that challenges our intuitions about confirmation by showing how evidence seemingly unrelated to a hypothesis can still count as confirming it.
  • B. Epimenides paradox
    The Epimenides paradox is a classic self-referential logical puzzle arising from a Cretan philosopher’s claim that all Cretans are liars, illustrating the problem of statements that refer to their own truth or falsehood.
  • C. Grelling–Nelson paradox
    The Grelling–Nelson paradox is a self-referential logical paradox arising from classifying adjectives as "autological" or "heterological," leading to a contradiction when considering whether "heterological" describes itself.
  • D. Curry paradox
    Curry paradox is a self-referential logical paradox that arises in certain formal systems without using negation, showing how naive reasoning about implication and self-reference can lead to triviality.
  • E. Yablo's paradox
    Yablo's paradox is a self-referential logical paradox involving an infinite sequence of sentences, each saying that all later sentences in the sequence are false, which challenges traditional notions of semantic paradox and self-reference.
  • F. None of above. chosen
  • G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
