When AI Overuses "Dependable," It's Telling You Something
When AI overuses "dependable" 23 times more than humans, it's not a quirk, it's a fingerprint. Opus 5.5 leans on that word so heavily that the pattern becomes its tell. That matters because language reveals how a model thinks, not just what it outputs. We explored similar ground in "One million tokens of context changes how we build with AI," where context depth reshapes capability. This isn't about catching a model in a habit. It's about understanding what that habit signals.
Measure consistency over time with a smarter approach to standard deviation
Tracking consistency across a hobby group's results is a smart way to spot trends, but the formula struggle is real. Your approach with `INDEX` and `COUNTA` is close, yet the syntax needs a nudge. For Excel 2019, try `=STDEV.P(OFFSET([LA],COUNTA([LA])-3,0,3,1))` to target the last three entries dynamically. It's a cleaner path than stacking `INDEX` calls. This isn't about complexity; it's about precision. If you're exploring broader data skills, our piece on shifting AI/ML job expectations might resonate,
