what is the…epistemic status, for lack of a better way to put it, of the probabilities? what do they mean? what (probabilistic) guarantees do we have about, say, the responses to

- is the capital of france paris?

- it is august. is it raining in paris?

(forgive the examples; they're probably not semantically the sort of thing jev is trained to work on. but i figure the point translates to various kinds of questions that come up in "inner loop of agentic pid controller" contexts)

a normal text-generating model if asked to produce a number will also do that just fine. i assume in jev's case it was actually rled to essentially learn to express priors over things using its implicit world model, which definitely ought to help, but can we say more?
