What the current evidence supports

Human editorial judgment · 2026-06-28

Track; not yet

Why
The blueprint is the most credible non-Meta validation that recommendation foundation models work, but it is a proprietary internal system with no released code/weights and assumes hyperscaler-level interaction data we do not have.
Next
Adopt the design pattern (autoregressive next-token over tokenized interaction sequences, dual ID+metadata age-aware embeddings for cold-start) as reference reading; do NOT attempt a full foundation-model build until ecosystem interaction volume justifies it.
