Sago wading into the synthetic-vs-human data debate is itself a market signal: research and annotation vendors have every incentive to argue that no amount of model-generated tokens replaces a human-verified baseline.

Watch whether labs treat this as a genuine quality argument or as vendor self-preservation dressed up as methodology.
