So much for all of the rhetoric about Mythos supposedly far surpassing GPT 5.5 (edit: in cybersecurity, in particular). Of course, the AISI benchmarks also showed this, but it is amusing that Anthropic is saying it now that it is to their advantage.

- CamperBob2 4mo agoThe best time to get mad was yesterday, when Amodei explicitly asked Trump to do something like this. But now works, too.
- solenoid0937 4mo agoAmodei never asked Trump to do this, he asked for an approval process to get powerful models safely in the hands of the public. It's a shame HN's critical thinking has gone to shit though.
- gck1 4mo agoThat's what happens when you beg for government's involvement. They might get involved, but not on your terms. Although I do believe Anthropic knew this and this kind of involvement is still beneficial to them, as it still slows down competition, which is their sole objective when you brush off marketing sprinkles from their statements.
- solenoid0937 4mo agoSafety testing of frontier LLMs does not slow down the competition any more than it slows down Anthropic. It does prevent them from doing dumb things like releasing zero day buttons into the wild, though.
- CamperBob2 4mo agoYeah, you're right. I guess there are other sites, though, where you might feel more at home. Maybe explore a few of those when you're done insulting the people here who told you exactly what was going to happen. In the meantime, there are a lot of classic morality tales in which deals with the Devil don't work out quite the way the protagonists hoped they would. These stories go back thousands of years, spanning a wide range of creeds, faiths, and cultures. You (and Dario) have some offline reading to do.
- waffletower 4mo agoI wonder how many OpenAI employees astro-turf like this.
- siddboots 4mo agoThey aren't saying that other models have the same overall level of capability. They are saying that the specific capability that the US Government tested is also available in other models.
- waffletower 4mo agoThat might also continue to anger the current administration, should they feel the need to, as it openly shared with other actors how to achieve the same capability. If they choose not to apply the same restriction to GPT 5.5 then an argument could be made that Anthropic is being singled out by the government.
- Tossrock 4mo agoThis is about the specific capabilities that the government called out, not Fable's overall capabilities. My personal experience, having used Fable this week for an extremely complex task, is that it is head and shoulders more powerful than any other model, at least for software engineering.
- cma 4mo agoThey are saying that comparison to other models only about the problems it was jailbroken to complete in the government's example, not all vulnerabilities it could exploit unjailbroken.
- UqWBcuFx6NV4r 4mo agoI’d suggest you use an LLM to assist you with comprehending their statement. It’ll do a better job, or at the very least be more objective than you’re being now. You’ve misinterpreted the statement. That is not what they’re saying at all. Please actually read instead of skimming until you find something that you believe reinforces your worldview.
