Its job in the formula

t is one of the signed contributions combined to compute the quantity on the left.

The passage around this formula

Formally, an observed score s is not a property of a model θ\theta alone. It is closer to s=g(θ,H,T,k,P,t)+εs = g(\theta, \mathcal{H}, T, k, \mathcal{P}, t) + \varepsilon. a function of the weights θ\theta , the harness H\mathcal{H} , the sampling temperature T , the number of samples k and how they are aggregated, the prompt template P\mathcal{P} , the date t a snapshot was queried, plus sampling noise ε\varepsilon . A citation that fixes θ\theta and leaves the other five free has not specified a comparable quantity. OpenAI’s own simple-evals table makes…
