Jev is super cool, and it’s super cool that it can handle novel categorization. Most organizations aren’t spending the big bucks on novel classification, though. They’re doing the same thing a billion times, which means Jev has to compete with having a custom model built and doing your own inference.
It’s very hard to build something generic like Jev, but it’s fairly manageable to build something more specific that handles a single kind of task. Especially at the scale where OpenAI would care about your attention.
I don’t really understand neural networks and I managed to train one to do hand gesture recognition on an old Leap Motion. It’s a pretty limited domain, but it trains on the CPU of my decade old laptop in under 3 minutes. The accuracy is quite good too, especially when you discount errors from the Leap (like misidentifying which finger is extended).
