> its confidence scores

important to note that the "confidence" score is... maybe not what people think it is - kind of useless, and just a convenience step from the probabilities.

from the docs: "confidence is a statistic computed from the probability distribution the answer already gives you." [0] I actually encourage people to visit the docs because it has a specific page on this with a little applet to really make this clear.
