Do not blindly trust general benchmark scores

Many technical leaders like to look at public benchmark leaderboards when choosing models, comparing whose score is higher. Those leaderboards are basically useless in vertical business scenarios. You need your own test set. A classic example: five years ago, when renovating a house, you discussed a special type of wood with a contractor, and now you need to find that email.

This kind of extremely long-tail, fuzzy search need is the real touchstone for AI quality. General models struggle with queries that span long periods and have vague semantics. So they had to build a hybrid search mechanism: first filter once with traditional search, then use semantic search to understand the remaining content. Truly useful AI is not the one that can answer “How tall is Mount Everest?” It is the one that can accurately pull out a name you casually mentioned five years ago from a pile of junk emails.
