Burkov dismisses Jev's speed claims; suggests ONNX DeBERTa classifiers beat LLMs

Several people asked Andriy Burkov about a product called Jev; he called it "looks like BS": Jev claims to be much faster than asking an LLM to do the same task, but the advantage may only matter for niche cases like high-frequency trading — and it compares against regular LLMs, not diffusion LLMs. Maziyar Panahi added that encoders/GLi-models deserve mention: a DeBERTa classifier in ONNX format runs incredibly fast on CPU.
