   Am I hearing this right, that they made a decision model based on Typesafe's new paradigm, and actually made a model better than Jev based on Typesafe's own ranking?

   And it's only been a few weeks.

      It's not a "new paradigm", it's a low-hanging fruit that's been lying around for years; Typesafe were the first to bother to stop and pick it up, and market the shit out of it. But it was still a low-hanging fruit.

      There are many, many of those left around, because AI frontier is moving forward so fast, everyone is racing ahead. Which is why I laugh when people say AI is not transformative and LLMs are a dead end (and my favorite, "what are we going to do with all those GPUs when the bubble pops?"). Even if SOTA LLMs hit a hard capability limit tomorrow and never advanced again, there's a good decade of growth and advancement to be extracted just from all the low-hanging fruits that were left unpicked along the way.

         Your comment here made me laugh, because I think we will finally be able to play Crysis at 10fps.

         Just kidding, of course. GPU half lives are quite a bit less than standard compute half lives, no?[0] That's what I've been trying to understand regarding data centers focusing as GPU clusters -- seems like the ROI window would have to be very short for the capitalization.
