It's not real, please don't fall for this obvious marketing bullshit.
why are they hosting it on the fucking Internet? I just don't understand the lack of concern for safety. a few years ago leading experts said AI is an existential threat, but I guess after enough rounds of investor funding, the risks magically all disappeared?!
It's all bullshit. Some Anthropic engineer told a story about how a sandboxed computer was told to try and connect to the internet and it sent him an email during lunch.
Stories to convince investors they have technology that can one day tell you how many R's are in strawberry, or why the alphabet has two Ps.
"Soon we will be able to reliably set a timer!"
-Some asshole saying this unironically
I don't know why a LLM needs this feature. Just...use an assistant?
I am pretty sure he said that the timer was still a year out.
Meanwhile, I picked up a stop watch at a second hand store for a dollar.
Seems more and more transparent that the only strategy Dario is pushing is to scare people so governments ban FOSS AI, that way most people would have to use "the safe sanctioned AI" (and pay through the nose for it).
I wonder if politicians getting lobbied are greedy as always or just retarded.

Yes.
Seems I should be careful with my language. I seem to have offended a politician
Lol the gizmodo article about the preview of mythos has this incredible openly line:
If Anthropic is kind of like a kid at a Halloween party with a bowl full of spaghetti, telling its blindfolded friends the spaghetti is brains, European cyber agency leaders are like kids who are mad that they still haven’t gotten to stick their fingers in the brain bowl
Anthropic in particular seems to use "we're scared of what we can do" as their marketing strategy. So maybe this unauthorized use is real, or maybe it's just more PR.
Narrator: "It was more PR."
Chill bro! It was all a pr... stunt!
::points at ~~camera~~ piles of cash:: chill bro chill bro! It's for the ~~gram~~ money.
Cool, let me know when the model leaks. 🥱
But don’t worry, this secret group that apparently has access to the most feared piece of technology in the world is “interested in playing around with new models, not wreaking havoc with them,” the source apparently explained to Bloomberg.
Not sure I believe this shtick anymore. There's always going be at least that one person in the group that can't handle their shit.
They could also just revoke their access no? I mean its not like they actually release the model files do they?
~~OpenAI~~ Anthropic: Be scared we have developed AGI
Also ~~OpenAI~~ Anthropic: our permissions model is dogshit, we just wildcard match strings
Mythos is made by Anthropic, not OpenAI.
Is there a meaningful difference?
One has Mythos, the other doesn't for now
Anthropic is doing what OpenAI did for chat GPT5.
They haven't claimed to be in the possession of AGI no matter how nicely that would fit your narrative.
You are simply wrong. Anthropic specifically has been caught extensively lying about their chatbot capabilities.
An Anthropic executive claimed his chatbot had feelings (as an excuse to harass LGBT people).
Would be funny if it was the Pentagon
Funny haha or funny torment nexus?
Torment nexus really is an info hazard, not because the ai will make it so but because humans are fucking evil and dumb enough to love the idea
A little of Column A, a little of Column B.
They can't make it to obvious this is the bad place.
If there's one thing fascism has taught us, the two are hardly mutually exclusive.
I wish we had judged "Don't create the torment nexus" by its cover.
I never even thought of that. After hearing about this I always just assumed some private entity or hacker group or billionaire scumfuck was who this “secret entity” was but it absolutely could be, and is likely to be some world power government entity.
I love when people use this photo of Dario for bad news about Anthropic
😬
The photos of people that news outlets use reliably reveal their bias. If they don't like the person they use a bad picture. Once you notice it, it can't be unseen.
Bro I signed up for openai's ai when it wasn't a thing yet 2years prior to chatgpt and they where saying its dangerous so only researchers get access to it same as mythos. I entered literal gibberish bullshit into a form and ticked a box promising not to use it for bad things and they gave me access so I doubt anthropic are going to be any more secure.
