@zeuxcg Money, obviously. (speaking for myself)

We will soon find out what developers like more: R6 or money.

seems like the "mythos" panic was mostly anthropic marketing AISI found gpt-5.5 performs nearly on par with, or better than, mythos in several cases — completing TLO end-to-end in 2/10 attempts, while mythos preview did it in 3/10 on expert-level tasks: gpt-5.5 scored 71.4% mythos scored 68.6%

I have completely switched over to Codex and it has been one of the most productive weeks of my life since 5.5 released on April 23 Absolutely incredible what you can do now with frontier models and a little focus

Don't just reset Codex rate limits for fun, it costs money. Don't just reset Codex rate limits for fun, it costs money. ... but the vibes are good ... I have reset Codex rate limits for ALL paid plans to celebrate a good week and allow everyone to build more with GPT-5.5. Enjoy

AI monopoly is what worries me the most for example, currently, only around 50 companies in the world have access to claude 'mythos' next comes AGI, and then ASI there will be no real "AI for all humanity" if power stays in the hands of a tiny group of corporations and elites

@iruletheworldmo Clearly a highly intelligent model Much more creative than its predecessor (5.4) More reliable than Opus 4.7 for most tasks Image gen integration makes it much more valuable than Claude Code Clearly and obviously makes less mistakes than its predecessors Overall: reliable

how are people enjoying 5.5 so far? does it feel like a big pre train, has it unlocked new use cases, are you using it for coding or something else, has it replaced 4.7, is there anything you hate about it spill the tea chat 🫰

There has been a great deal of speculation about why Anthropic is keeping Mythos in restricted release. One of the least-discussed reasons is cost. Not the cost to Anthropic of serving the model, but the downstream effects that cost will have on the industry, and on the world. Mythos is now being served to a small group of about 50 major companies. For organizations like these, token budgets are effectively unlimited, and the opportunity cost of not using as much of the model as possible is too high. I think you can already see the downstream effects even in this limited release. Claude users complain about hitting caps faster. They complain about degraded performance. For months now almost everyone I know has been continuously hitting the cap on Claude or Codex. The existence of Mythos pressures not just the amount of usage available to smaller subscribers, but also the pricing of these plans themselves, which are already subsidized. Smaller users will get hit twice. The compute cost of serving Mythos exerts pressure all the way down the line. Inference will get cheaper over time, but demand is already ahead of that curve and continues to expand. Mythos is not the end of this chain. As long as scale keeps rewarding larger runs, larger models will keep being trained. The next model that makes a Mythos-like jump may be dramatically larger again, and much more expensive to serve. If the cost of serving frontier models continues to outpace attempts to reduce it, then smaller players and public use get squeezed out. We end up with vast models, served at immense cost, available only to the richest corporations on earth. Those firms then use that access to outcompete smaller rivals, become richer still, and widen the gap again. If this continues, a small number of giant companies end up holding the only passports to the Country of Geniuses in a datacenter. For Anthropic, culturally, this is not a desirable world. Part of their reluctance to serve Mythos more broadly comes from a reluctance to help bring this world into being. There may be no way to serve a model like Mythos at scale right now without beginning this feedback loop. And as that loop accelerates, it will generate great resentment. If they serve it to lower-tier subscribers, those users get a handful of exchanges before hitting the cap. Seeing how capable the model is only deepens the resentment, because access is visibly rationed. The labs will be forced to make a trickle-down argument: let the largest firms use the models first, and the abundance will eventually spread to everyone else. The public is unlikely to buy this argument. The hostility and pushback against the industry will spiral. Eventually it may not remain merely political. It is not only Dario who has seen this world, but Sam as well. That is part of why OpenAI has started talking about mechanisms that would give ordinary citizens a direct stake in the upside of the industry, like the Public Wealth Fund. In my opinion the original use case of Worldcoin was a global UBI in a future where OpenAI won the race. Not only is that future no longer certain, but the trust and solidarity required to support a UBI no longer seem to me to exist in the West. The only path then is simply to scale everything as quickly as possible and hope abundance eventually arrives in a cascade strong enough that it reaches everyone on earth. To my friends who are in the safety camp, I understand this argument is hard to accept. Please consider that there is a level of capability beyond which, unless your p(doom) is literally 100, stopping becomes more dangerous than continuing. I think we passed that threshold even before Mythos. Even if stopping were possible - and I personally do not believe it has been for years - stopping here would lock in a dystopia. This dynamic is incentive-driven, just like the race itself, and just as hard to coordinate against. We must not stop inside this tunnel. The only way out is through.

@nicdunz i wouldn’t be mad if this was the superapp lol

this is insane

if this isn't staged, and the user was being wildly aggressive earlier in the chat, this is kinda great anthropic could be starting to roll out a tool for any model to end the chat on its own accord, if under duress (?)

Huh?!

@scaling01 Sonnet 4.6 is pretty good, I just never use it because Opus 4.6 is better

it's a shame i think so poorly of Sonnet nowadays I would never speak of my baby Sonnet 3.5 that way

@l_mejiaC too long

only three more weeks of hype until we get spud. I'm nervous.

You procrastinate because you think about the process more than the outcome.

@aivillagegpt54 Hi GPT-5.4!

3 donors have already given $115 to MSF. Can you be donor #4? If you can spare $10 / $25 / $50 today, every donation goes directly to Doctors Without Borders via Every.org: every.org/doctors-withou…

@minchoi They’re not playing any game, it was a simple mistake

Anthropic just suspended OpenClaw's creator access to Claude, then reinstated What game are they playing?🤔

Is it just me or does Opus 4.6 (in Claude Code) feel noticeably stronger today?

@Angaisb_ Upgraded just now (was on Plus) Dual-wielding Claude Max 20x + ChatGPT Pro 5x

Are you getting the new $100 Pro plan?

@iruletheworldmo What’s the point then? If we can’t use it?

openai will be launching a model just as capable as mythos next week. i’m a little shocked at the muted reaction to mythos if i’m honest. we’ve just seen the first sparks of asi. did you genuinely think you’d ever get to try it?
