got tired of reply guys.. so i built a chrome extension that stamps them jev by @typesafeai reads every reply and hides the low effort ones want it? thinking of open sourcing it
After co-inventing ChatGPT, I kept asking myself: why have superhuman chat models not led to AGI? I’ve spent the last 2 years in stealth building a new way to train models (RLCD), and a new type of frontier AI model that we are releasing today: Jev • 20-200x faster • 40-400x cheaper (w/ output tokens free) • Frontier composable intelligence optimized for decisions AFAICT the shortest path to AI-based economic revolution

79 away from 3K followers 🥹 298 days ago I had 0. Replying every day changed everything. If you're building something or into tech, let's connect.
Last two days on X: Day 1: 8 posts, 257 replies → 8.3K impressions, 63 follows Day 2: 4 posts, 141 replies → 8.1K impressions, 72 follows Half the work. Same reach. More follows. X shows each extra post less now. So post less, reply more.

Option A: quit your job, burn your savings, build full-time. Option B: keep the 9-5, build every night, take 3x longer. I picked B. Which one are you?

Building a Mac app is the easy part now. Getting it seen is the hard part. MacBase takes 2 minutes to submit to. Good timing for this.
