So Anthropic just dropped their new model Mythos yesterday. By far the most powerful AI anyone's ever built. And who gets to use it? Amazon. Apple. Microsoft. Google. JPMorgan. Nvidia. You and me? Nah. We get told its too dangerous for us. Think about that for a second. The companies with the most money and power on earth just got handed the smartest AI that exists and the rest of us are supposed to just be cool with it because "safety" I use Claude every single day. I plan with it, I think through problems with it, I build with it. I pay for it monthly. And now I find out there's a version that blows away everything I've been using and Training everysay and I'm not allowed to touch it but Jeff Bezos can? They say they'll release it to the public eventually. "When safeguards are in place." Cool. When is that? Who decides? Nobody will say. There's no timeline. No accountability. Just trust the company that's about to IPO in October and needs to keep their biggest clients happy. Six months from now when they finally let regular people near this thing those companies will have already built entire systems around it. They'll have trained teams on it. Developed tools with it. The head start compounds every day. We won't be catching up. We'll be further behind than we are right now. I actually asked Claude about this. Their own AI. It didn't sugarcoat it. It basically said yeah this is a legitimate problem and Anthropic should be challenged on it. So thats what I'm doing. if AI keeps going the direction where the best stuff goes to billionaires first and everyone else gets the leftovers that's not innovation. That's just the same old system with a new coat of paint. u/DarioAmodei u/AnthropicAI when does "when safeguards are in place" actually mean something? Give us a date. Give us a plan. Or just admit this is about money
