Here's what the results actually look like.Fri, 21 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMTResearchEngineeringMehdi NikkhahThe False Tradeoff in Computer Visionhttps://primateintelligence.ai/blog/false-tradeoff-computer-vision/https://primateintelligence.ai/blog/false-tradeoff-computer-vision/For five years, CV teams have been forced to choose between reliable (but rigid) detection and flexible (but unreliable) VLMs. That tradeoff is an artefact of architecture, not an inherent property of the problem.Wed, 19 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMTPerspectiveJEPAMatt MiesnieksWhy 'Deterministic' Matters More Than Accuracy in Production CVhttps://primateintelligence.ai/blog/deterministic-cv-matters/https://primateintelligence.ai/blog/deterministic-cv-matters/Production CV systems don't just need models that are accurate. They need models that are predictable. Here's why that's a harder problem.Mon, 17 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMTEngineeringInfrastructureMehdi NikkhahThe $6 Billion Bet on World Models — What It Means for CV Developershttps://primateintelligence.ai/blog/world-models-market-context/https://primateintelligence.ai/blog/world-models-market-context/AMI, World Labs, General Intuition — over $6B has flowed into world model companies.
