Observers doubt Simile/Aaru claims over lack of datasets and peer review
daveholtz · x · 2026-08-27
Informed observers express skepticism regarding the claims of companies like Simile and Aaru, noting that they do not release datasets for replicating results and have not published peer-reviewed work. While the proposed methods seem like cool, natural extensions of fine-tuning, there is insufficient information to evaluate their actual performance. Simile had previously detailed its confidence model designed to predict the accuracy of population simulations.
