ChatGPT: likely yes (Tibo tweeted that it was approved)

Claude: probably not (officially against the rules after the openclaw fiasco)

I don’t trust anything made by DHH now. He merged a PR that rewrote ttfx from rust to Claude generated asm (despite contributor objections) and then turned around and merged another that rewrote all of that into rust.

Which is to say that a normal organization would not be changing things so quickly based on the whims of a single individual.

Maybe I’d be ok to use omarchy just for fun, but could never use it seriously in any capacity.

I’m not sure I agree that g explains all model capabilities. I think “claudespeak” is a consequence of the shift from training on RLHF to training on verifiable rewards. Thus the models seem to become worse at storytelling, fiction, readability, not better.

Even if we do accept that models have some “g” and that it correlates with all domains, there’s no reason to think that the current trajectory of LLM intelligence will grow more quickly or even as quickly. In every other technology we have an early period of slow growth during experimentation, and then a rapid period of growth, and then stagnation.

For all we know, 2026 could be the year of stagnation. It’s possible that we will reach finishing returns. If thats true, then it won’t matter how much that task correlates with overall g, because g won’t be increasing that much.

> but I question how much folks are actually experimenting with what's out there

I did. Originally I had a project that I had been wanting to do and thought to use a decision model for it. Jev, OpenAI, etc. are all within percentage points of each other.

Then I used traditional ML and found a small classifier (gemma 4) with traditional embeddings worked 2x as well.

Jev is the general purpose ML pipeline for when you want average results. Nearly every application has a "better" option available with a small amount of work.

Anthropic's Series A was $124 million; Typesafe's is 7x that. If Jev becomes a $2bn company it will be a failure to investors.

Yes, it's astroturfed everywhere (like X and reddit).

Jev is used as an example of a successful marketing launch where they worked with many X "creators" prior to its release, so that all the creators would repost to put it to the top of everyone's feed. Then, over the following days they'd repost so it maintained momentum.

See: doomers.ai, clickstrike, growth matrix, etc. They use coordinated engagement, paid influencer networks, customized messaging, etc.

Jev isn't a terrible product, but it's way overhyped.
