It (DiffusionGemma with the Jev mode) can also solve an ASCII maze.

Your maze demo gave me the idea to try out the "speculative fan-out" pattern [1]. It seemed interesting to try solving mazes in one-shot. Unfortunately it seems like Jev can't reliably solve basic mazes even with a step count of 1! [2] I was very surprised. Could you point me in the direction of your maze solving code so I can see if it's a skill issue? The only other explanation I can come up with is that Jev was not trained on spatial reasoning tasks at all, and on the other hand DiffusionGemma has a vision tower and significantly more spatial data in its training set.

In their own demo the left and right panels almost never agree on anything. So it's X times faster but doesn't tell you if it's still right

No question OSS is amazing, but this video is a satire at best.
It doesn't take much attention to see the results on right vs. left side are significantly different.
Jev is not interesting if it's not "smart", a 1B param model is most definitely not smart.

It can be smart and not knowledgeable, as long as all the data is in the question you really don't need much in term of general knowledge, it might be even beneficial to stay on track. It mostly depend son what you do with it. For example in the doom demo I don't think you need astra level knowledge to know "enemy = bad" and "enemy is at my left = turn gun left"

Taking their spiel at face value, it's intended as a mimic of System One in humans. System One is also not smart.

Jev has a 32k context window. I doubt it's a large model.
Out of curiosity and semi unrelated — why do so many of these projects with customized encoder-decoder setups use earlier Qwen versions like 2.5 and 3 and not the smallest 3.5? Purely the few 100m params, or something else in the latter’s arch or pretraining?

In my experience if you tell Claude to port LLM-like stuff without explicit steering for versioning, it will default to the most popular thing for this in its training window to reduce errors. 3.5 is outside its training data.

I came across this recently. I was scanning for tiny models from HF using their search API. The script was generated by an agent. When I ran it, Qwen 3.5 did not make it at the top. Turns out, models generally prefer older content (training) but that the scanner also did not give any importance to recency.

My guess would be qwen 2.5 predates linear attention which would be more complex to use.

Anecdotally qwen2.5-14b runs a lot faster on my mini than the small 3 models ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

> A Jev-like model takes a piece of text and a list of N text options. It returns one probability for each option. It does this in one pass instead of writing an answer word by word.
I’ve read TypeSafe’s announcement, watched the home assistant demo, and still had no idea what it was. If instead those three sentences were in the announcement…

If you watch the Doom demo video, pay attention to the bars on the side. For every possible action, that's the likelihood it should take that action, for that iteration. They all update all the time. I thought that was a good visualization of how Jev differs from LLM generation.
suresk 18 hours ago [-]
I've seen a lot of LLM uses that are really just zero/few-shot classifiers with a lot of extra steps, so it is interesting to see more models that are taking advantage of all the intelligence encoded in the latent spaces of these models with really efficient output. It feels like this is an under-explored area of LLMs right now and I'm excited to see what comes out of it.
Runs ~0.2s per decision on my DGX Spark.
