Veteran ML engineer: Jev may push agent tool-calling back to discriminative models
multiply_matrix · x · 2026-09-19
An engineer with years in search and discriminative models weighs in on Typesafe's Jev: a general-purpose discriminative model positioned as "System 1" alongside generative models. He argues the three-year consensus of using small generative models for routing, tool-calling, and MCP may be disrupted—these functions could move back to discriminative models, prompting a rethink of current agentic architectures.
