Decision

What the current evidence supports

Agent-assisted assessment · independently reviewed · 2026-10-01

Consider a measured pilot for sequential recommendation workloads.

Why
Independent implementations demonstrate offline usability and serving progress, while quality gains and infrastructure costs depend on your workload.
Next
Compare with a tuned SASRec baseline using stable temporal splits, then measure cache behavior, serving cost and controlled online outcomes.

Constraints

Blockers

  • Preprocessing choices materially affect benchmark comparisons
  • Public tests do not reproduce Meta's proprietary production configuration
  • Serving benefits depend on cache hits and workload shape
  • Online uplift requires a controlled local experiment
