Various mentions in Astral Codex Ten, of [myself](https://astralcodexten.substack.com/p/the-passage-of-polymarket), or of Samotsvety Forecasting, my forecasting group:
> Enter Samotsvety Forecasts. This is a team of some of the best superforecasters in the world. They won the CSET-Foretell forecasting competition by an absolutely obscene margin, “around twice as good as the next-best team in terms of the relative Brier score”. If the point of forecasting tournaments is to figure out who you can trust, the science has spoken, and the answer is “these guys”.
