"mythos is too dangerous for the general public"

60 days pass

"announcing mythos for the general public"

Anyway, here's to a time I was right:

They fixed it. They made it more safe so that it can't do the things they were worried about.
And we all know that llm's famously can't be tricked into doing things they're not supposed to....

In 2019 it was OpenAI that said GPT-2 was too powerful to be released.

Like how Elon is out there making it sound like SpaceX is going to recreate Star Trek right before the IPO. Pure bull.

As we have fixed issues along the way, finding new ones are slowly becoming harder. “

I’m curious as to how well it would do at finding and highlighting those fixed bugs, perhaps on an old version of the repo.

Alas, overhyped like all things AI.

Here’s an example of Mythos finding 1 security bug in Curl https://daniel.haxx.se/blog/2026/05/11/mythos-finds-a-curl-vulnerability/

I use this when people talk about how scary Mythos is. It’s a great detailed analysis.

This is a year of increased, real reported vulnerabilities. AI has played a part in that, though it’s not clear to me if it did more than encourage more people to look.

A related sad thing is hearing about useful tools like Coverity starting to get neglected.

Entirely self-serving, but somewhat consistent with their messaging.
