System One decision models benchmarked against classifiers and LLMs

A new research paper published on arXiv details a benchmarking study comparing "System One" decision models against traditional classifiers and generative language models for automated decision gates. The study found that the effectiveness of each model type varies depending on the specific conditions and task. Small, trained classifiers performed best on intent-based tasks when provided with labels, while decision models generally outperformed zero-shot classifiers on workflow and intent tasks without labels. The research also explored factors like model calibration, error rates, and the impact of fine-tuning on model performance. AI

IMPACT Provides condition-dependent design rules for automated decision gates, influencing the choice between decision models, classifiers, and LLMs for specific tasks.

    Benchmarking System One decision models against trained classifiers and language models for automated decision gates

    arXiv:2610.00346v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Software that hands branching decisions to a model needs a declared option and a probability it can threshold. Typed decision models, also called System One models, return such probabilities without generating text, while supervised…
