Inference Engineering Credibility
Use Case
Rank people or sources for inference engines, routing, latency, GPU utilization, and model-serving operations.
View Signal Role
Low unless evaluating public education reach. Systems evidence, benchmarks, and operating scale dominate.
Scoring Weights
| Signal | Weight |

Policy Boundary
This policy scores credibility for one topic and use case. Do not reuse it for unrelated topics where public fame, domain credentials, implementation depth, or primary-source evidence should be weighted differently.
Change Rule
Change one policy file at a time, rerun python3 scripts/generate_synthesis_layers.py, and inspect credibility policy evals before applying new scores.
