A recent experiment tested five different AI models on a customer support chat analysis task, evaluating their accuracy in identifying customer sentiment. OpenAI's GPT-4.1 mini and a self-hosted Qwen2.5-7B model were found to be too negative in their sentiment analysis, while Google's Gemini 3.5 Flash-Lite was too forgiving. Anthropic's Claude Haiku 5.5 showed similar accuracy regardless of a 'thinking' setting, but its error distribution shifted. The experiment also highlighted significant differences in processing times and costs for batch jobs, with self-hosting proving faster and cheaper but less accurate, and hosted services showing variable performance based on submission time.
