Not sure whether the latency between your last sentence and follow-up question from the AI would be small enough for it to not be intrusive. As another user noted in a comment, that it takes time for the conversational model to call a more powerful sub-agent that evaluates your explanation and returns follow-up questions.

Another question is: can the model interrupt you and ask questions right away? What if you're incorrectly defining something and then building up on it? Would the model interrupt you right after the incorrect definition or after you've already finished your explanation?

I think that this could be useful for the case of learning something by teaching it to someone else, and this someone else being the AI. We all know that learning-by-teaching is a great way to see the gaps in your knowledge and check whether you can explain the topic simple enough for the "student" to understand it. But finding the "student" is the hard thing in this process. Replacing the student with this model, and maybe a better reasoning model behind, sounds like a good enough replacement of a real person, for this case.

Nice one! Sounds like a fun project to do. Did you follow any tutorial or guide for this? If so, I would appreciate it if you shared it.

I don't understand how Bulgaria supports the idea while most of its representatives are allegedly against it. How does that work?

That's sad to hear. I guess I'm giving too much credit to schools as a measure of success.

Yep, I don't know either, but I guess they have their reasons for this.

Sure, but isn't this kind of person the exception? I feel like most of the time good grades mean good programming skills

I'm a self-taught programmer as well, who dropped out of university, and these factors being omitted would benefit me as well, but I feel like good grades and a good university are still indicators of someone being or is capable of becoming a good programmer.

This system would drop a Harvard top graduate for someone having a year of experience in some outsourcing firm.

From `resume_evaluation_system_message.jinja`

> *SCORES MUST NEVER DEPEND ON THE FOLLOWING FACTORS:*

> - College, university, or educational institution name

> - CGPA, GPA, or academic grades

I don't understand why they would omit these factors from the evaluation.
