Original excerpt

they'll take the best methods and kind of do Do an ensemble, right? So they'll take up another, even if the best method is another previous model, they'll mix it with like an SVM and just like throw the kitchen sink at it. And so you can see why it would be the best, right? And so that was the bar for us. We're like, if they're going to throw the kitchen sink at it, like we're not going to cherry pick one model and say we're better than that.
