The passage around this formula
where C is technical capability, R is reliability at the required horizon, I is integration into real workflows, and G is governance permission. A high benchmark score with poor integration yields little automation. Strong capability and integration with unacceptable liability may be confined to decision support. Conversely, modest models can transform work when outputs are cheap to verify and errors are reversible.
