    I'm confused... This has no relation with the Jev team, isn't it?

    It's trying to "emulate" Jev behavior using a regular small LLM model (Qwen3 0.6B or MiniCPM5 2B). And with the smallest model it takes like between half to two seconds to run in my M2 Max, so it's not super fast.

    I mean, it's faster than asking to a regular LLM, but I think that's not proper to have Jev on the name (also legally...)

    Edit: no shade, and I'll give it a try for some ideas. I'd also like to have an open weights Jev but I think the naming is misguiding. I also have to try Jev that, BTW, got access pretty quickly, less than a day I think...

      OP's point here is that the overall approach of restricting output token space and using parallel prompts to produce concurrent results and taking the most relevant ones isn't something novel to Jev (not saying there's nothing novel, but a facsimile can be created at the application layer using any small, fast model)

        I get the point, and it's nice, but I think the "Jev" naming is confusing (and it could be legally dangerous).
