Perspectives
Thinking about what comes before intelligence.
Notes from Silo Data on task design, expert judgment, and the learning signals that shape useful AI.

Start with the task, not the dataset.
A precise capability target gives every example a reason to exist.

Judgment needs a standard.
A rubric should make disagreement informative and quality inspectable.

An agent task needs a visible outcome.
Actions become useful training material when their consequences can be checked.
