So we’re looking at lowering the bar some, but another big deal is the scale at which the top experts can work. That might actually be the longer lever. Imagine a top expert burning tokens across whole repo histories of a few dozen projects looking for likely but unconfirmed flaws, then having the model flag and rank those suspects for their own review in triaged order. |
