Founder claims TypeSafe AI's Jev copied his year-old non-autoregressive decision model

ConvAI Innovations founder Nandakishor Mukkunnoth says he built non-autoregressive decision models with RL a year earlier — an arXiv paper (arXiv:2503.23303), open weights, dataset, and PyPI package — only to watch TypeSafe AI (founded by ChatGPT co-inventor Diogo Almeida) launch Jev in September 2026 pitching the same concept as a breakthrough, with no papers or open weights. He responds by releasing Laya, a sub-35ms open-weight System 1 decision engine with RLCD calibration and 100+ language routing.
