I did read the article - some of the problems with judgements of work quality also come up with (hypothetical) well-intentioned truth-seeking non-political long-term-optimizing managers who just don't happen to be stats experts.
Sorry, wasn’t trying to imply you didn’t and I fully agree. Even managers that know stats can be busy or but into hype about ml or other shiny new things that they don’t have time or resources to deconstruct. This is another big problem with data science, “black box” systems and cargo cults. It’s easy to think “LLMs will change the world! We should use them, the competition will.”
