Shawn Wang: uncertainty

Transcript context

…What are the evals? Yeah. So the way I'm thinking about it is like have two various directions. The first direction is like, how do you improve the quality of the writing of the current use cases of Chachi PD? And those, most of the use cases are mostly like nonfiction writings.
