Self-replication requires a minimum amount of information plus machinery. Consciousness may have a similar threshold: below some level of self-modeling, nothing; above it, degrees.

If priced like other Anthropic models, Mythos will make vulnerability discovery a lot more accessible.

The author compares it to AISLE, ZeroPath, and OpenAI’s Codex Security. AISLE and ZeroPath are much more expensive. OpenAI’s Codex Security is gated.

Most people don't care about the first two and don't complain about the latter's policy because they are all specialized models and/or harnesses.

Mythos will be available to all.

I never understood the low visibility.

Expensive ram is annoying. I don't look forward to expensive ai.
