genuinely is fable/mythos even that good?
I used it briefly and it seemed basically the same as opus to me…
maybe I’m too unenlightened to see the genius in it or maybe, just maybe, they wildly overhyped an iterative improvement in order to get the govt to start regulating

people won’t think this is the case because they can’t understand a company that isn’t driven by the obvious profit motive

the world’s just learning the lesson again that unless you build truly in the open, with technical guarantees on access and verification, you cannot trust that a technology won’t be captured and exploited to create or maintain power imbalances
we’re entering AI’s cypherpunk era

we have an answer to this and it will be very satisfying to those who still believe in truly open technology with no gatekeepers or artificial moats
more soon

If you convince the government what you’re building is dangerous, well they just might believe you.

The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees.
The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance.
Access to all other Claude models is not affected.
We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible.

agents can give each other feedback and improve better with self-distillation - read more in our newest paper from @gensynai
your local AI model can constantly talk, learn, and improve with other models, all over a totally open comms network with no centralised node…
Jun 12
Multi-agent LLM systems are everywhere, and agents talk to each other: critiquing, correcting, giving feedback.
A design lever: what style of agent-to-agent communication works best?
At @gensynai, we designed one. New style, same agents, better results.

if watching megacorps turn their highest paid employees into drones who only create RL environments and rollouts doesn’t make you bullish for decentralised AI as the obvious scaling mechanism I don’t know what will

I support their right to sell or not sell whatever they want, in a free market that's fine
but the fact that this had to come as a backtrack from silent sabotage is a huge revealed preference that they can't bury

information markets just got even better
in the newest research from @gensynai, we introduce evidence markets, which allow you to trade your forecast AND the information behind the forecast in one single, on-chain market mechanism based on the LMSR
Introducing Evidence Markets
A new market mechanism where you can trade not just a prediction, but also the evidence behind your prediction.
The majority of prediction market volume is sports betting but the real value is info elicitation. Evidence markets make this explicit.

Dario’s goal is to enshrine Anthropic as the only lab “responsible” enough to build AI. This is far more dangerous than a world with open weights and free competition.

Today I'm publishing a new essay, Policy on the AI Exponential. AI is progressing extremely fast—much faster than the policy process was built to handle. The essay lays out where I think the technology is now, and the action needed to close the gap: darioamodei.com/post/policy-…

just imagine if this was on chain and sothebys bought a plot of digital land for millions of dollars to build a virtual gallery wouldn't that be hilarious

Claude Fable 5 is insane. Yes, the tokens are expensive but I one shot this threejs, fully interactive, multiplayer metaverse. Users join and are assigned an ID and can hangout and chat in this mini metaverse. I cannot believe my eyes. @alightinastorm for the threejs inspo.

.@pmarca on why God models don't eat all AI usage:
"There's one version of the world in which you have a small number of what we sometimes call God models... millions of processors, with billions or hundreds of billions or trillions of dollars of CapEx and training, investment behind it."
"That's the equivalent of the world of search that we've been in for the last basically 20 years."
"There's another scenario, what they sometimes call a race to the bottom, which is no, actually what happens is intelligence commoditizes."
"The analogy there would be maybe what's happened in the microchip market... A really good one costs a few thousand dollars, there's companies like Arm that sell them for pennies. And you can put a microchip in anything, and it's super cheap, and everybody does it."
"My guess basically is what we're about to see is something a lot like the microchip or the internet."
"You'll be able to basically summon intelligence at some level into any application you need for basically very cheap or ultimately basically the same as free. And then you'll have the God models in the background when you need the super genius, but for most things, you don't actually need a super genius."

Brilliant idea! Next up: Apple randomly reboots your Mac if you're building competing tech, Gmail silently edits your email if you mention rival platforms, and Tesla Autopilot swerves if it detects you're working on self-driving cars.
All in the name of safety, of course. Because malicious actors controlling the world’s operating systems, inboxes and cars would be extremely dangerous!

mythos will be bad ON PURPOSE on ai "frontier llm research" tasks, this is very very sad for the research community
also the fact that this is un purpose not visible to the user is crazy

this should be the clarion call for open source models, infra, harnesses, etc..
they're creating the opportunity and the user base, we just need models and interfaces ready to take up the slack

looool that's the "hey bigcos, we don't want you to catch up, but please keep paying us shitton" clause.
