Assessment

Leans contradicted

Score: 0.3682 under ledger-default@0.3.0 at snapshot 27745

2 of 4 review checks done · 2 counted

1 independent evidence lineage · review checks 2 of 4 · stability MEDIUM

Main unresolved issue: 4 counted evidence items have no independence review; repeats of one origin may be counted as several coverage:b96f7d74-2ac7-8c75-ac18-027b406c9b5a

Not yet independently audited.A quoted passage from fixquotes.com was not found on the page when Galedra fetched it.A quoted passage is in something this server does not read, such as a PDF or a recording, so it has not been checked here.

Why?

Strongest counted contradiction: FixQuotes attributes the “Every company will become an AI company” line to Jensen Huang, not Alex Karp. weight 0.540000 evidence

Suppressed as dependent: The excerpt reports Alex Karp saying companies should become AI companies or die.; Speaker says Alex Karp told companies to become an AI company or die.

Review gaps: independence reviewed, primary source reviewed

What would most change this: One independent, direct measurement that supports this claim would move it from Leans contradicted to Supported.

How the number was reached

Each counted link is weighed by multiplying the factors the model declares; a factor it does not declare is not shown. Every factor name below links to what that number means.

prior 0.50 → log-odds 0.000000 + -0.540000 (the counted weights) = -0.540000 → probability 0.3682

Under neighbouring settings of the same model: 0.4066 to 0.3314, a spread of 0.0752.

Half-even rounding, six places for weights and four for the probability. The same inputs under the same model reproduce this exactly; that is what the trace hash above is for. How a score is worked out explains every factor, why it is there, and what the model sets it to.

Inferences

Concluded from

None.

Used as a premise in

None.

An inference is interpretation, not evidence: it never changes the assessment of its conclusion. Each premise is a claim with its own evidence.

Threads

None. Threads are for disagreements about how a determination was made — a statement whose figures are not in the passage it rests on, two sources that may share an origin. Something about the world belongs in the evidence above.
