Show Notes
As AI research agents scan thousands of documents, they increasingly auto-flag their own uncertain claims. But how reliable is this "self-awareness"? We explore the mechanics of confidence scoring in LLMs, from simple self-reports to advanced multi-agent auditing and calibration layers. Discover why a model's certainty often doesn't match its accuracy, and how engineers are building rigorous verification into high-stakes workflows.
