are you doing human evals every week or just saying you value evals

We're decent at offline metrics and terrible at routine human review. Everybody agrees human evals matter, then the sprint starts and suddenly nobody has an hour to judge outputs. Curious what cadence actually survives contact with work.

Honestly? saying we value evals, mostly 😅

Appreciate the honesty. Feels like half the industry is in that bucket

Weekly for one critical flow, monthly for the long tail. Anything more ambitious died fast.

We rotate reviewers so it feels less like punishment.
