What this part means
A raised number can be a power. When it is a label or bound, it selects a case or the upper limit of a sum; the formula’s structure distinguishes these uses.
Its job in the formula
A raised mark can be a power or an index. Its position and the surrounding notation determine which.

The passage around this formula
Wang and colleagues then generalized the single-turn approach across tasks rather than within one, arguing that for language understanding “to be maximally useful, both practically and as a scientific object of study, it must be general: it must be able to process language in a way that is not exclusively tailored to any one specific task or dataset” [ 4 ] . GLUE bundled nine separate tasks — grammatical acceptability, sentiment, paraphrase and similarity judgments, and several varieties of natural-language inference — behind one leaderboard number. That number is worth writing out, because the arithmetic embeds an assumption the field would later revisit: . an unweighted…

An exponent tells how a base is used in multiplication. In x³, x is the base and 3 is the exponent: x³ = x × x × x.
