Developer @jaredpalmer released Kev-0.5B: a tiny open-source "Jev-like" decision model built on Qwen2.5-0.5B, with a TypeSafe-compatible API, trainable and runnable directly on a MacBook Pro. The model card and weights are on GitHub.

Retweeters are already memeing, looking forward to a "nano-jev speedrun" with the 0.5B model.
