It's a closed model and they claim that it's not LLM-based, so I'm not sure why you are claiming that it is LLM-based.

where is the claim it is not LLM-based? The claim I saw is that it is not chat-based but still text-based (JSON).

In the link of the comment I was responding to, they explicitly say that Jev is not LLM-based:

> Is Jev just a smaller LLM?

> Jev is neither small nor an LLM, hence being off the intelligence Pareto curve.

Sounds like BS for me. Jev is transformed-based, trained on language/texts, it receives text inputs and output text (json).

Jev is a language model. It doesn't matter if it is not a "smaller LLM" or not LLM by some weird definition.

		> output text according to the people who made Jev, it does NOT output text. it's a closed model, so we can't inspect the internals, but i would just take their word for it. just because the API responds with JSON text, does not mean that the underlying model is generating JSON text.
