CryptoWorld News reports that Tesla AI Senior Lead Engineer Cai Yunda pointed out that the public often believes that 99% of machine learning projects are spent running training, but in reality, only 2% of the time is used for model parameter training. In comparison, 50% of the effort is spent on evaluation testing, 40% on data cleaning, and another 8% on system integration. Cai Yunda emphasized that data cleaning and evaluation determine the limits of what AI can learn. If the raw data has vague definitions or contradictory labels before and after annotation, noise will be introduced at the source. Any magic algorithm or tuning technique cannot eliminate background noise because the model cannot correct incorrect textbooks on its own. The ultimate accuracy ceiling is entirely dependent on the effective information content of the data itself. To ensure data standards are consistent from the source, Cai Yunda said he reviews the definitions of data concepts and classification systems daily, even repeatedly auditing historical labels. Many practitioners agree and point out that whether it is reinforcement learning rule setting or precise annotation during model fine-tuning, the quality of data and evaluation level always determine AI performance, not the model architecture itself.

So don't just boast about the number of parameters; first, standardize the annotation guidelines.

Data quality is indeed the ceiling.

8% System integration... Looks like deployment is the hidden big pitfall

The definition of raw data is ambiguous—this really is an industry-wide problem. If the top-level design isn’t done well, then everything that comes after is just about having to repay the debt.
