📈 We consider how models’ confidence in their answers changes as test-time compute increases. Reasoning longer helps models answer more confidently!

Golden idea for an NLP paper: a group of llamas is called a "cria herd".
That would make a great name for a LLM method, model, or paper.
Just remember to acknowledge me in your paper.
You're welcome.
