Short Answer

Required Quality of the Verification Target

Question: Answer in one to three sentences: What must the reference output y* satisfy, and what is not necessary?

Sample answer: y* should be a result that scores better than the model's current output under the chosen evaluation rule. It does not need to be the single best possible answer, only an answer that is better for comparison.

Key points:

  • y* must beat the present model output.
  • y* does not have to be globally optimal.

Rubric: The response must include both the comparison to the current output and the fact that global optimality is unnecessary.
