STAGE 1 / 7— Anti-Pattern
Section 1: The LLM Anti-Pattern vs Right-Sized Model
The Naive Generative LLM Approach:
Routing inbound emails to "spam" vs "ham" using an LLM API at 10,000 emails per minute.
Why It Fails in Production:
Costs thousands of dollars daily and takes 1,000ms per email, when Naive Bayes does it in 0.05ms with 99.5% accuracy.
