I had the new AI classification model Jev bet on the NFL for the first 2 weeks. Here’s how it went.

A new AI model that can’t write a sentence, a blind research pack for every game, five seasons of testing, and real money on the line. Every pick, including the ones that lost.

REWhy I write this

Hey, Judd here.

I run a one-person AI agency in Sydney. Every week I'm inside a real business, building something with AI that has to work on Monday morning.

Once a week, on Thursday, I'll tell you what I built, what broke, and what I'd do differently. Then I'll give you one thing you can take and use the same day. Additionally weekly updates on the industry as a whole, new products, new models and my thoughts on each.

No hype. Just my thoughts on the week, what worked, keeping you in the loop, in plain English.

The first experiment: I let a new AI bet on the NFL.

A model that can't write a sentence, five seasons of testing, and real money on the line. Every pick, including the ones that lost.
