If every company rents the same frontier model, who gets the compound interest on the AI? For #OpenSourceAIWeek , @raffi (CTO, @mozilla) and @Koukoumidis (CEO, @oumi_ai) tackled that in AI Masterminds.
The questions they tackled:
• What happens when your provider changes pricing or access?
• Cost per token, or cost per completed task?
• Is the model the product, or the harness around it?

What they agreed on: the goal isn’t to pick one model forever. Keep your options open. Start with one critical workload. Evaluate it. Test alternatives. Write a runbook. Then decide where an open or specialized model wins.

On Nov 4, we’ll show how to build agents and train the models behind them, and you keep ownership of both. Register: oumi.ai/events/fall26

Jeremy Greer, Oumi's head of research, thinks he figured out how Jev was made. His guesses/analysis + how you can too:

- Qwen 3.5 or 3.6, based on obscure & famous knowledge comparisons, name probing, and sensitive question responses
- 35B A3B, based on obscure & famous knowledge comparisons, benchmark performance, and serving profile
- Tokenizer is a merge of Qwen and gpt-oss
- RLCD is likely just standard soft-label cross entropy from synthetic data
- Synthetic data is a mix of teacher-taught from reasoning models and programmatic answers to code-generated questions
- Serving is likely done with tree batching rather than standard vLLM
- Based on long document performance, they're likely using a form of sparse attention or serving on two GPUs and splitting the prefill between them. Most likely B200s or above.

No insider knowledge here, so these are best guesses based on experiments. All details in the article: oumi.ai/blog/how-to-bu…
