Yes (the former).

(info "(gnus)Adaptive Scoring")

        Note that the adaptive word scoring thing is highly
        experimental and is likely to change in the future. Initial
        impressions seem to indicate that it's totally useless as it
        stands. Some more work (involving more rigorous statistical
        methods) will have to be done to make this useful.
