tldr you cannot gradient descend to find the optimal human being.

this reminds me a lot of the recent book The Fund about Bridgewater Capital, where they tried to come up with hundreds of metrics to rate each employee on, and then they made employees constantly rate each other on an iPad with this custom software they spent massive sums of money building. If you didnt rate other people you got fired. After years and years of this it was just all abandoned, complete and total waste.

I read the book about this in Principles. They rate all their decisions. It is hard to imagine how it works
