Field notes

Hunch frames prediction as a probability distribution over application-defined candidates rather than a generated response. Its displayed example routes a duplicate-charge support ticket among Billing, Account, and Technical support, while the surrounding research note emphasizes that calibration may vary by task. The site presents the model as a research preview and says evaluation, unfamiliar task families, and release materials remain in progress.
