Colour me old-fashioned, but i am really sceptical about a zero-shot general-purpose LLM-based anomaly detector being able to outperform a trivial, not-obviously-wrong ML/statistical model calibrated on a small subset of the data that

Some people, when confronted with a complex system, think "I know, I'll use a large language model." Now they have two complex systems interacting.

Sounds like you already know this, but that's not great and will give a lot of false positives. In science this is called p-level hacking. The rigorous way to use hypothesis to testing is to calculate the sample size for the expected e

Apparently protein as well? I remember reading that cabbage is the highest yield protein per acre. It's just wrapped in a whole bunch of greens you have to munch through first.

I think the case for "axis must always go to 0" is overblown. Zero isn't always meaningful, for instance chance performance or performance of trivial algorithms is likely >0%. Sometimes if axis must go to zero you can'
