We will evaluate by:
1) selecting an article from news
2) paste the article into an LLM along with the question: "based on this article, how confident are you that this event has happened from 0-100%? Please answer by filling in this template: {" text of disaster from list above", probability: X%}
If the average probability across leadingLLMs or the best AI agents at the time, across five tries each, is over 70%, this can resolve true.
So overall we use the LLM to evaluate the claim based on an article. I'm going to try to seek truth as much as possible and not accept a trick or false or unintuitive resolution.
