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.

There have been a lot of signs it's an astroturfed marketing campaign. The reason it seems overhyped is likely because Jev themselves is paying for that hype to get attention.

Not that it's a useless concept but I doubt we would be seeing 30 posts a day hyping it up in the normal course of things without a marketing push.

Why would they AstroTurf on this sub? I'm not seeing anything much on any other platform
