Our #AI model, trained to revisit the footage, scored ~70% on those same questionsโ€”significantly beating the hardest human calls. The paper explains the method; next, weโ€™ll dig deeper into the broader economics across multiple survey waves. Stay tuned!

With the recent spotlight on replication in development economics studies( @i4replication.bsky.social )

We are thrilled to share our #AAAI25 acceptance! We spent months with @fao.org perfecting yes/no #FoodSafety questions for vendors in Kolkataโ€”translated and filmed on-site. Why film? So we could replay the entire process afterwards and verify every step. #EconTwitter #EconSky
