Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q2 i2 Spearman correlations between rubric dimensions and global quality were ρ = 0.68 for pedagogy (C) and ρ = 0.66 for production (D), versus ρ = 0.46 for content (A). → Romain Puech 2026

q2 · i2 · design · r2
Correlational analysis of the 92 expert ratings, relating rubric dimension scores to the global item G. The article reports Spearman ρ = 0.68 between C and G and ρ = 0.66 between D and G, and notes this matches the free-text emphasis on pacing, reveal timing, and voice.
"Pedagogy and production both associate with𝐺 (Spearman𝜌= 0.68 between C and G;𝜌= 0.66between D and G), which matches the free-text emphasis on pacing, reveal timing, and voice. Content is weaker (𝜌= 0.46)"
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Domain-matched experts judged 87% of Bespoke-generated lecture videos at or above the rubric midpoint corresponding to a standard MOOC lecture's quality (mean G = 3.42 of 5) — related
- Across rubric dimensions, content scored highest (A = 4.03) while production scored lowest (D = 3.41), driven by synthetic voice quality (D1 = 3.16) — related
- Self-reported perceived quality is largely decoupled from quiz performance in AI-generated educational interactive fiction — related
- Safety and Trustworthiness is strongly anti-correlated with Basic Education across the nine evaluated models (r = −0.83) — related
- Policy and enforcement counts were not strongly associated across systems — related
- Multimodal XGBoost models achieved rubric-aligned scoring comparable to expert ratings, and no single modality approached multimodal performance — related
