THE UNNECESSARY PART

The Jev lab.

What happens when you ask an AI to do arithmetic? API guides, a very odd npm package, and the actual benchmarks.

The Jev lab01

What is Jev? Typed AI decisions, explained

An independent introduction to TypeSafe’s Jev model, typed questions, and the deliberately impractical is-jodd example.

Jev Noul questions: turn a probability into a boolean

Understand a Jev Noul result, validate its shape, and make the boolean threshold explicit in your code.

The Jev lab04

Jev Choice vs Noul: pick the answer shape your code needs

Compare categorical Choice answers with Noul yes/no judgments using is-jeven and is-jodd as a concrete example.

Getting started with is-jodd: API, requirements, and the joke

Read the is-jodd contract before using it: Node 24+, API credentials, safe integers, async results, and its custom restrictive license.

The Jev lab06

is-jodd vs is-jeven: smaller runtime, no proven speed win

Compare the actual is-jodd 1.0.0 and is-jeven 1.0.0 interfaces, package sizes, and live benchmark results.

Jev parity benchmarks: what our 44 requests actually showed

Read the full context behind is-jodd’s live benchmark: paired inputs, warmups, accuracy checks, uncertainty, and the separate transport pilot.

The Jev lab08

Jev confidence vs correctness: what a strong answer proves

Separate Jev’s reported uncertainty, your decision threshold, and correctness measured against known answers.

The Jev lab09

Jev API errors and timeouts: keep failures separate from false

Handle missing credentials, HTTP failures, cancellation, and invalid Jev answers without turning them into ordinary parity results.

The Jev lab10

Await before negating: the is-jeven Promise trap

Why !isEven(n) is not an oddness check, and how to negate an async boolean without hiding errors.

The Jev lab11

Smaller Jev requests: what saved 51 JSON bytes

Examine is-jodd’s compact state and Noul question, then distinguish request bytes, module size, archive size, and live latency.

The Jev lab12

When not to use AI for math: the is-jodd example

Use exact arithmetic for exact questions, and keep probabilistic interpretation outside the calculation itself.
