Claims that LLMs are best used at development time to pre‑annotate and speed dataset creation, then fine‑tune smaller task‑specific models to match or beat few‑shot LLMs. Workflow uses Prodigy teams and Prodigy for annotation, spaCy with spaCy-llm calling GPT‑3.5 for prelabels, produces ~1,200 annotations in the session, and yields a private model <1 GB that runs ~200k words/sec. Experiments show wins with small fractions of data (1%–5%) and sometimes with ~20 examples.
