A developer who says all the grifters got Jev's architecture wrong is releasing an open-weight replica, with the training recipe already public. Progress update: 65% done, likely shipping tomorrow. Confirmed specs: based on Qwen3.8 27B, 265k context limit, multimodal (no audio), quantizes well, and in early experiments appears surprisingly smarter than Jev itself.
