What was misleading was the original title:

"Jev: New frontier model 40-400x cheaper and 20-200x faster"

I'm not the gatekeeper of who gets to call themselves a frontier model, but I don't think most people would count Jev in that group. It sounds false.

If their specific claims hold up, then it would make more sense to say something like:

"Advanced the speed/cost frontier for structured decisions"

I dunno, I would consider Waymo and Tesla to have frontier models.

I think AlphaFold and related are also frontier models.

Being an LLM does not seem like the qualifier for frontier.

Large language models are not the only type of model.

How is this not a frontier model? It's bleeding edge in its own niche. It's not a frontier LLM; however, applicable to many of the things people use LLMs for.
