’ Kay bayho ?’ (What’s the problem?) I ask, smiling at the child before me, who has purple cheeks and mucus running down his upper lip. He looks back at me blankly: he is only 5 years old and, although I was using Nepali, his mother tongue is Gurung, one of 93 native languages spoken in Nepal. Home for this little boy is quite literally at the roof of the world in Upper Mustang, on the Sino-Nepalese border. For 6 months of the year it is too cold to study at over 4000 m and, with the rest of his school, he has made a 2-day journey by jeep and bus down to Pokhara at 825 m, where he is spending winter in a residential school.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
