From what I’ve learned about Jev I feel it’s just a very successful marketing campaign to developers not fully understanding data science (and deep learning). It’s nothing new, been around since 2022? Being local is an extreme advantage lol.

Fast and accurate general purpose classifiers DID NOT EXIST before Jev. You could either use an LLM to get a slow and accurate general purpose classifier, or you could use a smaller model to get a fast and inaccurate general purpose classifier, or you could fine tune your own model that would be both fast and accurate, but it wouldn't be general purpose.

But we still don't have a fast and accurate classifier.

All we have is a company that claims to have created one, with no proof.

I've seen enough proof to convince myself, but unfortunately I don't have enough to convince you. Maybe others will publish proper evals.
