My ML Model Was 97% Confident Every Time — Here’s Why That Was Actually a Problem

1. 1Evaluate your ML model's performance using metrics beyond accuracy and confidence scores
2. 2Analyze the model's output to identify potential biases or overfitting
3. 3Test the model on a diverse set of inputs to ensure robustness
4. 4Consider using techniques such as calibration or uncertainty estimation to improve model reliability
5. 5Review and refine the model's training data to reduce noise and inconsistencies

Data scientists and machine learning engineers can benefit from understanding the limitations of confidence scores in ML models, to improve model reliability and trustworthiness

💡 High confidence scores in ML models do not always translate to reliable predictions, and additional evaluation metrics and techniques are needed to ensure model trustworthiness
