Tests: 3 of 10 right · Exam: 3 of 4 right · Kind: ★★★ · Understood: 10 of 14 · Run: 2026-10-18, commit f3c23ea72

Lesson 10 of the AI course of Mova's primary school, as Mova's small model took its tests: it had read this lesson and the ones before it and learned from their exercises. Each test shows the options in the order the student saw them, its choice, the right answer, the score of every option and why it chose. The lesson itself, sentence by sentence with trees and pragmatics: the lesson in the corpora.

Every question of this lesson and each of its options parsed by Mova, with trees and pragmatics: the lesson's questions in the corpora.
