Jev and the Case for Deterministic Interfaces Over LLM Black Boxes
round · x · 2026-09-19
A designer argues that pre-transformer generative interfaces built on decision trees and constraint solvers offered repeatability that LLMs lack: no matter how good models get at parsing intent, they remain black boxes that are frustrating to nudge. The author is excited about Jev's 'deterministic interfaces' and intelligent software composition as a way to regain design control.
