Summary written by usedby from the source page, in English. The figures are those of Together AI and Slingshot AI, not ours.
- 50,000+“Partnering with Together AI, the team achieved 3x more frequent training iterations, enabling rapid incorporation of clinical feedback and scaling to 50,000+ users receiving mental health support.”
Training 3-7 times per week (vs. weekly previously) enables rapid incorporation of clinical feedback.
For us, it's all about speed. We're continuously shipping new models, deploying them, seeing what happens. The faster the pace of iteration, the better we think our models will get over time.
