alt Hacker NewsMan, I'm already burnt out on all this jev talk.
The one thing jev has going for it is a dedicated company focused entirely on making the product good and keeping it maintained. I haven't been willing to jump on board with all these jev-shaped projects because their releases feel driven mostly by opportunism. I'm fine waiting a bit for the opportunists to shake out so we can see who is genuinely committed to bringing something valuable to the open-weight community.
Jev is much better than the traditional ML crowd gives it credit for, but my enthusiasm hits a wall when it comes to their data policy. It is completely draconian. Whatever you feed into the system, they retain.
The jev team needs to release a ZDR product, or their platform is dead on arrival. An open, jev-shaped model will win out solely on that basis.

In their privacy policy they say
We (1) will not train or fine tune any artificial intelligence or machine learning models on Input, and (2) will not disclose any Input to a third party other than our service providers.
They offer ZDR. It was effortless to get.
> ZDR
Does anyone actually believe this?

that is generally a very healthy attitude in the AI space anyway in my opinion.
Some of our R&D departments haven't actually finished an interesting project in years because they keep jumping from trend to trend wanting to try out all the latest shit all the time.
