Honeywell and Ecolab say frontier AI errs too often and costs too much for physical work

Honeywell's CTO put frontier AI at maybe 85% accuracy against the 99.9999% customers demand, and Ecolab said top models can cost more than people. Ecolab has since cut its token costs 70% to 80% by tuning, so cost looks like the easier of the two limits to fix.
