And really anthropic is making a very narrow claim:
Mystic is so good at finding bugs that it poses a danger to critical digital infrastructure.
That is not that outlandish a claim. The model is 10-15x more expensive more expensive to run than other flagship models, and if anthropic is being truthful (which is a big if, I’d like to see what they are finding), finding critical vulnerabilities like its nothing.
Makes total sense to stage the rollout privately first so critical infrastructure can be secured before these models are generally available to any attacker.
But I fucking hate their stupid marketing.
