Evaluate the utility of an Eyeball dev set for non-human-level tasks.

Question: Explain why the utility of an Eyeball dev set changes when an algorithm is trained on a task that humans cannot do well, and describe what action a practitioner should take regarding the Eyeball dev set in this situation.

Sample answer: When working on a task that humans cannot perform well, examining an Eyeball dev set is less helpful because humans cannot easily determine why the algorithm made a classification error. Due to this difficulty in error analysis, a practitioner may choose to omit the Eyeball dev set entirely.

Key points:

  • Difficulty identifying reasons for algorithm misclassification.
  • Reduced helpfulness of examining the Eyeball dev set.
  • Omitting the Eyeball dev set.

Rubric: The response must explain why examining the Eyeball dev set is less helpful (difficulty in figuring out why the algorithm failed/misclassified) and state the recommended action (omitting the Eyeball dev set).
