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

TypeSafe AI launches Jev, an early-access 'System One' model delivering calibrated structured outputs claimed 40-400x faster and cheaper than LLMs.

TypeSafe AI, founded by former OpenAI researcher Diogo Almeida, released its first 'System One Model' called Jev in early access. Jev forgoes string generation and is trained with Reinforcement Learning for Calibrated Decisions (RLCD) to produce type-safe structured values with calibrated probabilities. The company claims 70-500ms response times (40-200x faster), input pricing of $0.042 per million tokens, and free output tokens via a parallel sampling architecture. Target use cases include AI-powered workflows, real-time applications, and verification/guardrail tasks.

Introducing Gemini 3.8 Live and 3.8 Live Extended Thinking

Google DeepMind launched Gemini 3.8 Live and 3.8 Live Extended Thinking speech models, topping Artificial Analysis' Speech-to-Speech Quality Index at 82.6.

Google DeepMind released Gemini 3.8 Live, built for cost-efficient near-real-time dialogue with visual grounding, and 3.8 Live Extended Thinking for high-complexity multi-step reasoning. Extended Thinking ranks #1 on Artificial Analysis' Speech to Speech Quality Index (82.6), scores 68.6% on τ-Voice, 35.1% on Sierra's τ-Voice-banking, and 97.7% on Big Bench Audio. The models detect and switch among 97 languages mid-conversation, execute background tool and API calls, and roll out in the Gemini API, AI Studio, Gemini Enterprise private preview, and Search Live. All generated audio is watermarked with SynthID.
