If you’ve been hanging out on the internet the past few days, you’ve probably come across Jev, a new AI model that’s taken the AI community by storm. Jev is not a traditional LLM. It’s built for making decisions, not for writing text. Having gone deep on Jev over the past few days, I really do believe the hype is real and there’s huge potential here for product builders.
As I’ve previously said, it’s critical that everyone learn how the technology behind AI actually works, even those in non-technical roles. Understanding how an agentic system works allows you to apply the technology thoughtfully to your own products.
I’ve had multiple people reach out explaining that they’ve read everything out there on Jev and they still don’t understand what it actually is. So this article is for them. It’s a guide to Jev for the normies out there. If everything else that you’ve read about Jev has left you with more questions than answers, this article will be different.
