Harness: I made Jev control the player, has access to WASD, space, click, and mouse movements. Astra is the planner that sends instructions to Jev async. Learning: Each time the agent would fail, Astra would add skills as mjs files, that it can draw upon in different scenarios, Show more

X: Jev plays Pokémon Showdown
1/8 Saw Jev from @typesafeai on my feed, so I made it play Pokemon Showdown. Codex built the harness. It was damn fast. Its choices were a mixed bag. Full match, video 1/2. This is a saved replay with decision data, latency and added reading pauses.

After co-inventing ChatGPT, I kept asking myself: why have superhuman chat models not led to AGI? I’ve spent the last 2 years in stealth building a new way to train models (RLCD), and a new type of frontier AI model that we are releasing today: Jev • 20-200x faster • 40-400x
