Imagine firing 14% of your staff and making the stock price go down not up






The latest versions of ArXivMath and BrokenArxiv have been released! Nothing too surprising: GPT-5.5 remains at the top, and other models follow very similar patterns as the March version.


In a post-Mythos world, the public will no longer have access to the cyber frontier. Some may argue "but China is only 8 months behind so they will open source mythos level models then." I disagree. It seems unlikely that the CCP will let one of their companies release a model that gives EVERYONE (including China's adversaries) access to a model that differentially increases EVERYBODY's offensive cyber capabilities. Most likely, I expect that DeepSeek and other Chinese companies will move toward lobotomized open-source models (models that have been specifically trained to have weak cyber capabilities). They would ofc have internally deployed cyber-capable models and I assume they will follow suit with Anthropic and give access to the Chinese gov and critical software maintainers (There are other possible scenarios but this is my modal guess)



to be fair here's the original paper also we were using the sqrt(n) trick in romania in coding contests in the 2000s to reduce memory in dynamic programming algos (backprop is a dynamic programming algo)



Everyone on earth takes a private vote by pressing a red or blue button. If more than 50% of people press the blue button, everyone survives. If less than 50% of people press the blue button, only people who pressed the red button survive. Which button would you press? BE HONEST.
