$20,000 to scan one codebase
that's what anthropic says it cost Mythos to find those zero days.
per repo.
except API tokens are currently sold at a LOSS. That "$20,000 scan" probably cost closer to $100,000 in real gpu time
ffmpeg couldn't afford the subsidized price let alone the real one...
if the cost doesn't come down by a huge factor this just doesn't make sense.
