This agent uses log probabilities and self-reporting to gauge its confidence in generated answers, with a focus on domains like ice hockey. The agent was trained using Wikipedia as a knowledge base and can access external tools for real-time information, while also incorporating a fact-checking layer. AI

IMPACT This agent's development could lead to more transparent and reliable AI interactions by highlighting model confidence levels.
