01 / WRITING

Notes from building it.

Long-form engineering writing on applied AI — what we build, what broke, and what we would do differently. No listicles.

    Jev cannot hallucinate. Its own docs explain the catch.

    TypeSafe AI raised $40M for a model that guarantees zero hallucinations. The guarantee covers schemas, not answers, and constrained decoding has done the same since 2024. The claim worth checking is calibration, and nobody has verified it.

    Your prompt is telling Astra to do things it already does

    GPT-6 Astra runs tests, reads what it needs and reasons on its own. The instructions that used to help now cause over-testing and stalls. Which lines to delete, and the three dials worth setting instead.
