Feedback Loop Field Guide

Here I’ve gathered as many feedback loops as I could think of and lay my hands on, with their latency in application. For increasing the quality of AI output, it helps to feed back deterministic signals. Starting from the basics, you can reduce errors with strong, pervasive typing, linting and automated testing at multiple levels — but that only covers building a thing initially, not all the other questions: is it the right thing, is it deployed correctly, and so on.
