Drives me nuts that this nomenclature caught on. This (judgement, not decision) is a bit better. I mean, sure they (Jev-style models) are useful for zero-shot classification, but they're only "judgement models" insofar as any (LLM, ML, mathematical optimization, heuristic, etc.) model that sets a downstream float / integer / boolean to commit resources (read: makes a decision) is a "judgement model".

If you actually want to make good, even optimal (provably) decisions, try reading some about mathematical optimization, or operations research more broadly. The above link is a good place to start.

Really cool visual way to do demonstrate the point. Jev is so interesting to me, I just struggle to find good use cases in my work so far.
