Purpose of an Eyeball Dev Set for Human-Level Tasks

Question: For a task that people already do well, such as sorting customer support emails into topics, what should a manually reviewed dev set be large enough to accomplish?

Sample answer: It should be large enough to expose the model's main failure patterns so you can see which kinds of mistakes happen most often.

Key points:

  • Make the dominant mistake patterns visible.
  • Include enough examples to judge those patterns reliably.

Rubric: The student response should clearly say that the Eyeball dev set must be large enough to reveal the system's main error patterns or failure modes.
