Many people, when encountering unsatisfactory performance from AI models, their first reaction is to criticize the algorithm itself. But think carefully, the model is actually just faithfully executing the "instructions" from the data — what it learns is what it will output.



If the final result looks very absurd? Then you need to trace back. Start by checking the data source. Is there a problem with the quality of the training set, or is there bias in the input features themselves? This shift in thinking will directly affect how you build the entire system. Instead of constantly tuning parameters, it’s better to focus more on data cleaning and preparation stages. Small changes can make a big difference.

Bad data goes in, garbage models come out, it's that simple. Many people are still blaming the algorithm. It's been unfair to blame the algorithm for so many years; ultimately, it all starts from the source. This is the lesson of Web3: garbage in, garbage out. Without data cleaning, everything else is pointless. You're right. Instead of playing with parameters, it's better to focus on good data. It yields twice the result with half the effort, brother. Blame the model less and blame your own dataset more. Not everyone has thought of that. I strongly agree. Many projects fail because of data quality issues. This is the right approach. About 80% of the problems are actually in the preprocessing stage.

Bad data goes in, garbage models come out. Isn't that common sense? Haha --- Once again, a bunch of people blaming the algorithm. I'm really exhausted. They haven't even looked at what data they're feeding. --- Good, finally someone said it. Tuning parameter enthusiasts really should reflect on themselves. --- That's why I say data engineers are more valuable than algorithm engineers. No one wants to listen. --- Data cleaning can indeed solve about 80% of the problems, but no one wants to do this "boring" work. --- Laughing to death, a bunch of people copy and paste datasets and then start blaming the model. Serves them right. --- So the key is to find a clean data source; everything else is just floating clouds. --- Exactly, exactly, garbage in, garbage out. The eternal truth.

Data goes into trash, models turn into monsters, isn't that common sense haha As expected, we still need to check from the source; tuning experts should wake up Very true, many people love to blame the algorithm, but in fact, what they feed the model has long been rotten Have you ever encountered a training set that's a mess, yet still blaming the model? It seems most people haven't realized how important data quality is Exactly, instead of endlessly tuning parameters, it's better to get the data right first That's why good engineers always focus on refining the data

Exactly right, garbage in, garbage out. No one can save it. Garbage in, garbage out, it's that simple. A few days ago, our project crashed because of this. We kept blaming the model, but later we found out the training set itself was skewed. Data cleaning is the real key, but unfortunately, many people are unwilling to put effort into it. It's just like on-chain interactions—if you input the wrong address, even the most powerful contract is useless.

That's so true. I've fallen into this trap before, tuning parameters until I was overwhelmed, and only then realized it was a data issue. The saying "Garbage in, garbage out" is truly a painful lesson; I need to reflect on it carefully. A model is like a mirror; if it reflects ugliness, it's because the source data is dirty, and fixing the mirror won't help. This is why data scientists are more valuable than parameter tuning engineers; the core is to build a solid foundation. Oh my, if I had seen this article earlier, I wouldn't have wasted so much computing power. I feel bad for the wallet.
