My understanding is that BERT can still outperform LLMs for sentiment classification?

To my understanding yes. But I never found a good use-case for sentiment classification.

It seems to be used by Youtube for comment censoring / shadow-banning.

That might make sense.

I used sentiment analysis a few times in recommender systems (for digital media consumption.)

Also for analyzing Trump's tweets (from 2016): https://mathematicaforprediction.wordpress.com/2016/11/21/te...

Really cool investigation. Would you mind sharing the BERT specific sentiment detection?

Thanks!
