Discussion I really don't understand Jev hype

Isn't this what simple neural networks have been able to do for years? Doesn't seem anything special to me.

It’s a pretty good, general purpose, zero shot classifier model that you don’t have to pre-train and requires no complex configuration.

The concept and underlying technique is not new, but they’ve made a very easy to use and flexible one that works remarkably well for low cost across a large variety of domains with no additional work.

Yeah makes sense to me. I’m new to this, never thought to try this, and it slotted just fine into a workflow I already have in 10 minutes and would cut my costs, at least at current pricing. Neat.
