How does that let you check for yourself, though? Don't people still have to trust that the reported probabilities and weights are both meaningful and correct?
Also, people tend to be pretty bad at interpreting probabilities.
That’s a fair point — verification itself still depends on trust in the verifier What we’re trying to test isn’t absolute truth, but transparency under uncertainty
You’re right that people often misread probabilities — but maybe that’s the point
If we can see uncertainty, even imperfectly, it starts a different kind of trust
Not blind faith — more like “I know what this system knows it doesn’t know.”
I’ve been thinking more about that — maybe verifiability doesn’t remove trust, it just changes where we place it Not in the system, but in the transparency of its process
