Go read the safeguards section in the report and you will realize why that is.

These models are heavily as safeguarded and that was the initial reason why they said they couldn't and haven't released Mythos because that model is the one without the safeguards.

OpenAI is did the same thing when they announced a model without safeguards broken into HuggingFace servers.

Yes, this makes a lot of sense, but it’s just very amusing to see. 2 months ago, the world was about to end, now not so much.

7+ years ago GPT2 couldn’t be released because it was deemed too dangerous[0]. It was, of course, eventually released.

> We can also imagine the application of these models for malicious purposes , including the following (or other applications we can’t yet anticipate):

  *   Generate misleading news articles

  *   Impersonate others online

  *   Automate the production of abusive or faked content to post on social media

  *   Automate the production of spam/phishing content

Seems like the prediction was pretty accurate.

Dario Amodei is one of the authors of the paper. He used the same marketing tactic with Anthropic, and got flagged by US Gov.

It’s seven years already. Crazy.

[reciprocity]

Yes, I think so too.

[dzonga]

I realized it a why back these labs are selling hype.

since then I have never cared about models except those that affect money in my pocket e.g AWS Nova Sonic

Have you been patching your systems for the past two months? It was crazy even if you completely forget the supply chain literal FUBARs and you must’ve been living under a rock to not see OpenAI (accidentally) pwning hugging face

[reducesuffering]

> now not so much

OpenAI Huggingface breach begs to differ

[neuronexmachina]

Do you have an example of the "doomsday marketing" you're referring to?

I see a pretty big gap between finding software vulnerabilities and “the world is about to end”. It is literally true that AI models are finding software vulnerabilities. It is also to my mind a reasonable thing that you’d want to be cautious about rolling out a model that can find more vulnerabilities. So what is the objection you have to these sources?

[NichoPaolucci]

Absolute masterpiece of a rebuttal. No notes.

[knuppar]

feels almost like anthropic is desperate for ipo huh

i think we'll see one of the fastest deflations in history post anthropic/oai ipo

[jetsetk]

could you elaborate please?

[knuppar]

both companies have large spending commitments while their margins will be continuously wiped by open models / router-like solutions. both companies are rushing for ipo and doing an awful lot of financial engineering to look good (highly recommend ed zitrons analysis on anthropic profitability) before their margins are eroded that much.
