Just curious, where has this term 'noul' come from for yes/no ansers?
/a bit more digging and..
A Noul performs a Bernoulli trial—an experiment with exactly two outcomes (yes or no)—but instead of picking one, it returns the calibrated probability (ranging from 0.0 to 1.0) that the statement is true.
I hate it :)

  The whole "no hallucinations" premise is based on that.
  Like, yeah, you don't hallucinate, but only because you force the user to decide in the end.

    Not entirely.
    I think, it's a bit much to call this "no hallucinations".
    Technically true, but in practice you could still choose the wrong result or the probabilities can be off.
