TL;DR · WeSearch summary

A kind of super-powered classifier built on an LLM, developers can give Jev a set of choices that it outputs as probabilities cheaply and at high speeds. OpenAI’s Decisions API seems to be the same sort of product. At the event, Altman described the API as a way to give the lab’s Luna model a predefined set of options to choose between, such as categories in which to classify an image or different agent behaviors.

A kind of super-powered classifier built on an LLM, developers can give Jev a set of choices that it outputs as probabilities cheaply and at high speeds. OpenAI’s Decisions API seems to be the same sort of product. At the event, Altman described the API as a way to give the lab’s Luna model a predefined set of options to choose between, such as categories in which to classify an image or different agent behaviors.
