Frontier large models exhibit a contradiction in OCR tasks between over-engineering and insufficient capability: using top-tier models for ordinary documents wastes resources, while they still struggle with complex long-tail cases.

UnverifiedDeploying top-tier flagship models for simple tasks wastes computing resources and drives up the cost per task.73% similarUnverifiedThe cost of frontier models on document parsing tasks is typically an order of magnitude higher than that of dedicated, cost-effective solutions.72% similarUnverifiedCurrent mainstream large models excel at handling isolated, well-bounded small tasks, but expose shortcomings of incomplete understanding and loss of detail when faced with highly coupled, large-context legacy systems.70% similarUnverifiedLong-term background operation of persistent agents requires striking a balance between compute cost and response quality, an engineering challenge not yet fully resolved in current large-model deployments.70% similar
