Description
The Jev benchmark you've all been waiting for: Will Jev pull the lever in the trolley problem?Don't think too much about it :)Place whatever you'd like on each side of the tracks, and GPU (my startup's AI system, whee!) will have Jev judge the result.As a bonus, two really good looking SVGs are rendered with gpt-oss-120b for what you place on the tracks. I've made a really high quality thing here.My first impression is that Jev does well! I understand it's not exactly designed for this kind of "classification" -- I think -- but I haven't been able to get it to pull the lever away from any villains or geese yet.It's public against my better judgement. No account necessary, have fun.Side presentation: I've put together a more "serious" harness here if you're interested in evaluating Jev for yourself. I've been interested in seeing how well it does if you augment an existing smaller model with it: https://gpu.studio/jev

Could you build this?
Yes This is a lightweight toy web app taking two text inputs and passing them to an LLM to generate a humorous trolley problem verdict and SVG graphics.
