A lot of the real world use cases that stack judgement + decisions all come down to perceiving risk, modeling hidden variables, and taking action under uncertainty.

For this reason, good ol fashioned games serve as much better benchmarks for this than the core “standardized testing-esque” benchmarks we see accompanying every model release

We found one game in particular to be a really good benchmark for real-world performance: poker!

Turns out the learnings from watching LLMs think and act during poker aligns really well with the anecdotal reports on real-world performance of the models.

There are many great builders exploring RL and benchmarking on games, and yet the this niche is still underrated and deserves more public interest.

If you’re curious to learn more, check out https://t.co/3dcPtnw31h to see what we learned about models’ psychologies through hundreds of games of poker

We've heard teachers say, “Oh, I’m just a teacher” a million times, and we tend to assume we know what that means. But what does it really look like to be #justateacher?
