Santa Clara County alone has 24 million property records, but the study team focused mostly on 5.2 million records from the period 1902 to 1980. The artificial intelligence model completed its review of those records in six days for $258, according to the Stanford study. A manual review would have taken five years at a cost of more than $1.4 million, the study estimated.

This is an awesome use of an LLM. Talk about the cost savings of automation, especially when the alternative was the reviews just not getting done.

Specialized LLMs trained for specific tasks can be immensely beneficial! I'm glad to see some of that happening instead of "Company XYZ is now needlessly adding AI to it's products because buzzwords!"
