How deeply does The Art of AI Product Development cover ranking score?

Distinguishes relative scores from absolute answers but does not explain how scores are calculated.

Ranking score

As explained in The Art of AI Product Development

A relative score is a numerical value that ranks or compares outcomes without necessarily representing an absolute probability or certainty.

A ranking score helps compare AI outcomes; it is not automatically an absolute answer or a measure of certainty. Users need context to decide how much weight to give a score and where their own judgment matters. section 12.3.4

Interpreting a demand forecast

An 80% chance of increased demand is compared to a weather forecast predicting rain: it still leaves room for a different outcome. Planners can weigh the forecast against regional knowledge, such as an unexpected holiday sales surge. This illustrates interpreting AI outputs, though a probability is not itself a ranking score. section 12.3.4
