This is a bit too radical and misses some nuance. In order to start building classifiers you at least need some ML domain knowledge, like what to google at least. Meanwhile, point anyone at the jev/open-jev-clones API and have them start classifying in <10 minutes. There's some value there. (same used to be valid for LLMs before jev became a thing. You can use llms as zero-shot classifiers with the right API wrapper, w/ no domain data).
Even if you have ml knowledge, it's still nice to be able to experiment with various use cases with zero upfront data/training time.
