    Seems like this is the way, a hybrid approach where some of the pipeline will be jev like and some traditional LLM depending on the nature of the work.

    This isn't really surprising. LLM reasoning and before that, chain of thought prompting are essentially forms of test-time compute scaling.

    Are there "good" Open source Decision models built on Gemma-4 and also trainiable on own data?

    Jeeves, that's a name I haven't heard in a long time...

      Personally I’m happy that after a 30 year effort and hundreds of billions spent, AskJeeves finally works as intended.

      If Jeeves returned as an AI chat bot it would be the most brilliant resurgence of nostalgia

        jeeves is currently the name of my local hosted assistant, in its context there are rules that tell it to behave like good old jeeves.

        soon I'll make sure that my home assistant pod answers to "Hey jeeves"

    Just curious, where has this term 'noul' come from for yes/no ansers?

    /a bit more digging and..

    A Noul performs a Bernoulli trial—an experiment with exactly two outcomes (yes or no)—but instead of picking one, it returns the calibrated probability (ranging from 0.0 to 1.0) that the statement is true.

    I hate it :)

      The whole "no hallucinations" premise is based on that.

      Like, yeah, you don't hallucinate, but only because you force the user to decide in the end.

      If you want to get super pedantic about what’s happening in a transistor every digital Boolean is actually this

      • kevindamm 29 minutes ago

        Not quite.. that boolean is about whether the voltage exceeds some threshold. It's not about how close the voltage is to the circuit's maximum possible threshold, or how much it exceeds the threshold.

        In an analog circuit, maybe.
