The builder argued that an off-the-shelf, fast, cheap generic classifier has value even though classifiers are not new.

The original post

The Jev polarization is fascinating to watch. Not sure why it’s important we gatekeep this idea that classifiers have always been a thing? Surely there is value in an off the shelf, SOTA, generic classifier that’s blazing fast and too cheap to meter?

Where this case fits

Filed under classification & data extraction. In the pattern Jev is built for, the model answers a bounded question per step — and ordinary code acts on the answer, because the answer is already a value rather than a paragraph. Other posts in the same family are on the classification & data extraction page.
