Shieldstral: you write the policy as a plain-language question at inference time, and the model returns a calibrated safety score. No retraining, one interface for text and images, and a verdict from a single token. Colour me skeptical.

No change in model accuracy isn’t something you can guarantee. Quantization is a lossy compression technique, so information is discarded. In practice, providers usually mean benchmark scores show no statistically significant drop, not that every real-world inference will produce identical outputs.
