Strands Decider A small, fast decision model for agentic AI. Strands decider is one of a new class of decision models, or "system one" models. Unlike an LLM, which can generate arbitrary text, a decision model picks between sets of options and rates things on a scale. This class of model works best for problems that fall between LLMs and traditional classification models: it is a general-purpose classification and scoring model that responds faster than an LLM and does not take the time and expertise to train that a traditional classifier does. That makes it a natural fit for the decisions inside agentic workflows built with the Strands Agents SDK. the phrase 'sihamba ngokushesha' in? English, Zulu, or Dutch." classification tasks it has never seen, answers at a confidence of 0.9 or more are right about 95% of the time (evaluation/results.md); below that, confirm or ask a person. Frontier LLM…
