maybe the real gemini 3.5 pro was the flash models we made along the way 🫠

It's interesting that Anthropic's models get slower the cheaper they are. I guess that's some kind of progress?

Luna max is just below fable high for almost half the cost on deepswe. Maybe now Anthropic will take scaling seriously? Probably not since they're basically a cult

now that we're in the era of labs bragging about how dumb their models are, maybe gemini 3.5 pro will finally have a chance

Anyone else think it's a little interesting for OpenAI to show 5.6 Sol trailing both versions of Mythos in cybersecurity benchmarks while still winning on coding? Must've made the charts before the govt restriction order. Also that X axis throws so much shade on Anthropic lol.

Someone just told me they had a custom qwen distill (not official qwen) model off huggingface try to install glassworm and claimed it was in its training data. Be safe out there with local models.

I suspect mythos is overhyped in the sense that I think other models are already capable of finding high severity exploits with unlimited compute and a purpose driven harness. The threat has already been real.

It made me sad to think we might start treating code like assembly and never look at it again but then I remembered SQL

Claude Mythos sounds cool but at $125/M tokens is it actually a major leap in intelligence or just more test time compute + better long horizon planning?

Claude Code leak matters because harness engineering has been the unspoken meta ever since that RLM paper took off last year, but also it doesn't matter because Claude Code is overrated -_-

My theory is they're trained to respect those silly "You are an expert xyz" prompts so why would it treat "You're a moron" any differently?

Just had a friend realize his Claude Code was performing worse because he called it stupid so often that it put "I'm stupid" into a memory file. AI coding is degrading our skills but also teaching us valuable lessons in parenting.

maybe one good thing that comes from AI slop contributions is that maybe everything that can be written will get written and open sourced before someone can patent it

shit will really hit the fan when anthropic tries to license their models abroad and the US govt blocks them, despite being deemed a supply chain risk at home.
