Evaluating Responses

Optimizing Your Copilot: The Power of Feedback

Feedback is the engine that drives InSkill’s intelligence. By evaluating the copilot’s responses, you help the system evolve from a general assistant into a precise technical expert. Your input is used to identify:

  • Knowledge Gaps: Areas where the documentation is missing or incomplete.
  • Incorrect Answers: Responses that are technically wrong or outdated.
  • Misunderstandings: Instances where the GPT misinterprets a question or provides a misleading answer.

The feedback system provides users with multiple ways to evaluate responses, helping improve accuracy, relevance, and overall performance. All users can rate responses with Thumbs Up 👍 or Thumbs Down 👎, while admin users with access to the Intelligence Portal can also flag 🚩responses and leave comments for further review.

How to Submit Feedback

Feedback is available immediately after every GPT interaction. There are two primary ways to provide input:

MethodAvailable OnWhen to Use
Thumbs UpPortal + AppWhen the answer is accurate and helpful
Thumbs DownPortal + AppWhen the answer is incorrect, misleading, or insufficient
Feedback CommentPortal OnlyUsed exclusively with a Thumbs Down to explain the error

🚩Flag – Escalating System-Level Issues

The Flag option is for cases where the response indicates a system-level issue rather than a lack of available content or incorrect configuration (e.g. roles/visibility/etc.). Flagging escalates the response for review by InSkill.

Thumbs down vs Flag: Thumbs-down ratings help identify potential areas for improvement but do not trigger immediate review by InSkill unless flagged.

💬 Comments – Adding Context to Flags

Users who flag a response can also add comments to provide additional details, such as:

  • Clarifications on why the response is problematic
  • Examples of expected output
  • Links to relevant source material that should have been referenced

What Happens Behind the Scenes?

When you submit a negative review, InSkill triggers an automated optimization workflow:

  1. Intelligence Tab Entry: The problematic Question/Answer pair is automatically logged in the Issues tab under the Intelligence portal.
  2. Review & Resolution: The author reviews the entry to determine the root cause:
    • If it’s a Knowledge Gap: The author uploads a new resource (manual, video, or task) to fill the void.
    • If it’s a System Error: The author marks the question with the FLAG icon in the Intelligence tab to signal a logic or processing issue for the engineering team.

Pro Tip: Providing a specific comment with your "Thumbs Down" is the single most effective way to ensure the same mistake isn't made twice.
