What Changes When the Underlying AI Models Improve

Understanding what happens when AI models improve matters because your configuration stays the same while the capability underneath it does not.

What changes and what does not

The distinction determines what you need to do.

  • Changes — quality of answers, classification consistency, extraction accuracy
  • Does not change — your instructions, knowledge base, or field permissions
  • Does not change — the boundaries you configured
  • May change — how a borderline case is handled

What this means practically

You evaluated months ago and rejected itRetest — it is materially different

How to stay current in Jestor

  1. Note that models in Jestor are updated periodically, chosen per function.
  2. Retest features you evaluated before, since the underlying models have changed.
  3. Review workarounds you built around earlier limitations.
  4. Keep your knowledge base current, since that remains your responsibility.
  5. Record when models changed, so measured improvement can be attributed correctly.

Why choose Jestor for improving capability?

Jestor combines models rather than committing to one and updates them over time, which means a capability evaluated six months ago is not the capability available today.

Document reading in particular has improved notably, so teams that tested extraction early and found it insufficient are testing a different system if they try again.
