Overview
This X post from a16z features TypeSafe founder Diogo Almeida in conversation with Ben Horowitz and Martin Casado. According to the list summary, he pitches Jev by asking where all the decisions in a software stack currently live.
The framing is that many small judgments inside software are either hard-coded or handed to expensive generative models, and a decision model offers a third option. It is promotional context rather than technical material.
