What was misleading was the original title:

"Jev: New frontier model 40-400x cheaper and 20-200x faster"

I'm not the gatekeeper of who gets to call themselves a frontier model, but I don't think most people would count Jev in that group. It sounds false.

If their specific claims hold up, then it would make more sense to say something like:

"Advanced the speed/cost frontier for structured decisions"

I dunno, I would consider Waymo and Tesla to have frontier models.

I think AlphaFold and related are also frontier models.

Being an LLM does not seem like the qualifier for frontier.

		This is likely still an LLM (in the purest definition of a language model with relatively many parameters) since the inputs are natural language, just not a generative LLM as the output is something other than more language.

Large language models are not the only type of model.

How is this not a frontier model? It's bleeding edge in its own niche. It's not a frontier LLM; however, applicable to many of the things people use LLMs for.
