    > The problem: thinking models think too much

    This is partly the appeal of Jev et al; having a quick model for simple tasks, that doesn’t require that much thinking

    It’s amazing all the workflows that models like that can unlock. And yes, classifiers and other ML models have been around for a while for these types of tasks, but Jev has made it easy and cheap to play and experiment. This in turn, is incentivizing people to try them for a bunch of stuff, unlocking creativity and producing a lot of new cool (and eventually potentially very useful) applications

      What are the useful applications of Jev so far? Not to sound dismissive, I just haven’t seen what people are using it for yet.

        Here&#x27;s a third-party (not Jev) showcase of things people built, which helped me kind of get the appeal. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;bentossell.com&#x2F;jev&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;bentossell.com&#x2F;jev&#x2F; (not mine).
