MTS(@MTSlive):SITUATION EXPLAINED: Is Jev a new kind of AI, or just a very fast classifier? • Diogo Almeida claims Jev is up to 200x faster and 400x cheaper than LLMs • Jev doesn't write anything. It returns scores and probabilities, fast and cheap • @tenobrus: "every flashy demo is something existing done 10x faster and cheaper and not actually functional, and the launch was incredibly misleading" @theojaffee: "It's very, very early days. It's like the equivalent of GPT-2 to what we have now with Astra. And it's possible that there are some tasks for which something really cheap and really fast is better than frontier intelligence."

After co-inventing ChatGPT, I kept asking myself: why have superhuman chat models not led to AGI? I’ve spent the last 2 years in stealth building a new way to train models (RLCD), and a new type of frontier AI model that we are releasing today: Jev • 20-200x faster • 40-400x cheaper (w/ output tokens free) • Frontier composable intelligence optimized for decisions AFAICT the shortest path to AI-based economic revolution
