Hello, everyone at Damoa! 😊
It's time to break down difficult IT news into easy and fun comics, week 39.
This week, a new AI that is "200 times faster than existing AI" made headlines. As it turns out, it's a completely different type of AI from the chatbots we know. We've covered everything from rumors about Google's next-generation model to OpenAI's big event. Would you like to take a look at the comics slowly?
1️⃣ The true identity of 'Jev', 200 times faster — An AI that doesn't speak
"'Jev', which is '200 times faster than existing AI,' has arrived. The secret is surprisingly simple. This AI doesn't write! Unlike ChatGPT, which creates sentences one by one, 'Jev' instantly makes decisions like "Which one should I choose?" It's a decision-only AI. That's why it's 40~200 times faster and much cheaper. However, it can't be used for writing, coding, or explanations, and is only specialized for repetitive decision-making tasks. It's not a "chatty AI," but a "decision-only AI."
2️⃣ Jev's counterpart, the open-source 'Laya' — Free on your computer
Just three days after Jev was released, a free open-source AI 'Laya' was created using the same principle. While Jev requires access to company servers, Laya is less than 1GB in size and can be run for free on your computer or company server. Since data doesn't go outside, it's also good for security. It has gained over 8,000 stars from developers within three days of its release. However, the performance figures are self-measured, and Jev is still considered better for complex tasks with many choices.
3️⃣ Summary of rumors about Google's 'Gemini 4 Pro' — 88% performance·2M tokens truth
A model presumed to be Google's next-generation AI 'Gemini 4 Pro' appeared anonymously (under the pseudonym 'gemini-3.8-flash') on a test site. Leaked scores show it surpassing OpenAI and Anthropic's top models, with a lower price tag. There are even rumors that it can read dozens of books at once and remember conversations permanently. However, everything is still 'leaked and unconfirmed.' Google has not officially announced anything, nor has it been independently verified, and some suspect manipulation, so take it as a rumor for now.
4️⃣ OpenAI DevDay 2026 Viewing Points — The Age of AI Agents (Technology & Economy)
OpenAI's biggest developer event will be held on September 29th. Altman has raised expectations by saying "there will be a big announcement this week." The core seems to be 'managed agents.' This would allow anyone to easily create and deploy their own AI assistants. It signals a shift towards an era where AI does more than just answer questions — it takes on entire tasks. This is causing tension in the software industry, which has traditionally relied on monthly subscriptions.
I hope you enjoyed this week's issue. See you next week with more insightful news! 🙌
