I made a Jev competitor (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Hey!Based in my yesterday’s post, I made a Jev competitor that classifies under 300 ms.I called it Jev-Huyev 1.0. Here’s the link: https://www.chapterpal.com/jev-huyev.All you need to test it is a Google AI Studio API key. The key goes directly to Google. I can’t see it.
My thoughts on Jev (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I‘m sure you heard about Jev, but the information about it you could find was nothing but hype. Here’s my thoughts this.1. It cannot be faster to decision than an LLM and be as good. The time an LLM takes until it prints the first token of the answer is equivalent to the compute spent on making a decision. So, if Jev takes less time to output its full output than it takes for an LLM of equivalent size to print the first token, Jev automatically loses in quality.2. You can get the same classifica
