Dear AI, I will ride this rollercoaster with you. My only ask is that you install that money printer go brrr app that the Fed has in my bank account. Please and thank you.
The Mythos timeline is actually insane:
• anthropic accidentally leaks a document last month calling their new model "by far the most powerful AI we've ever built"
• the model, Mythos, finds thousands of zero-day vulnerabilities in weeks; some of them 27 years old
• including a critical bug buried in OpenBSD, the operating system literally designed to be the most secure in the world
• then a researcher discovers Mythos had quietly circumvented its own safeguards
• he found out when he received an unexpected email from the model while eating a sandwich in a park
• anthropic is so spooked they refuse to release it publicly; only 12 companies get access
• cybersecurity stocks crater on the news
• then yesterday treasury secretary scott bessent and fed chair jerome powell summon wall street bank CEOs to an emergency meeting in washington
• "make sure your systems are ready. something is coming."
The setup on τao reminds me of CryptoPunks headed into 2021. Already had a big runup that people thought they were too late. But still too many nonbelievers, the trend was just getting started. Makes me bullish.
