thoughts on Typesafe/Jev: I'm surprised that a general-purpose classifier (or discriminative model) can be just as interesting to the public as a general-purpose generative model. I've worked on search and discriminative models for years, so maybe I should have called this upfront, tbf I never thought about making them general-purpose beyond search. Typesafe also positions Jev really well as "System 1", a complement to the generative models we already have. Humble, unassuming, and sidestepping the frontier-lab warzone. Jev's success could be disruptive to today's agentic systems in many ways, such as tool-calling and routing patterns. Over the last three years the consensus was to use a small generative model for routing, tool calling, MCP etc. Time to pause and rethink such architecture, because we'll probably see tool calling and routing move back to discriminative models. Whoever ships the next Jev-like open-weight base model will likely win the community.
