How Krillion scoring works

Each prompt accepts many answers. Some prompts are scored against a familiarity database — how often a word or name actually turns up in what people read and write — while the rest get a hand-tuned mix of model and human judgment. And the Krillion isn't picked by rarity alone: it's also chosen for fun, the answer that's most satisfying to land on. Source: Krillion FAQ
