Decision theory shows that LLM cascades are structurally limited by always incurring the cheap model's cost before deciding to escalate, with the best performance given by the envelope of pairwise cascades rather than fixed chains or many stages.
Unsupervised single-generation confidence calibration for reasoning LLMs via offline self-consistency proxy distillation outperforms baselines on math and QA tasks and improves selective prediction.
