"The moment of discovery" does not always exist: the scientist's work is too tenuous, too divided, for the certainty of success to crackle out suddenly in the midst of his laborious toil like a stroke of lightening, dazzling him by its fire.

This is an excellent attempt (blog & paper) at bringing more statistical rigor to evaluation of ML models (this is specifically focused on LLM evals).

I feel like we need to have similar clear standards for many types of predictive models in biology. 1/
