Neil, we keep hearing mythos framed in this all-powerful light.
Some say its capabilities have been overstated and the fear-mongering only helps Anthropic.
But the last-minute meeting shows that Wall Street is clearly talking about it.
It is important, but also after we kind of covered this story last week when Mythos came out and Project Glasswing was announced, a lot of people said, how real are these vulnerabilities that Mythos so apparently uncovered?
And an analysis from John Martindale for Tom's Hardware found that some of the bugs that they kind of highlighted are not as bad as they think.
They flagged one vulnerability in a software called FFmpeg.
That vulnerability had existed for 16 years already.
No one knew why they included it in the report.
There was another one around Linux that said that a lot of them had been recently passed.
They were less severe in terms of how bad the vulnerabilities actually were.
So another separate kind of analysis found that
Of the exploits found, they found 600 examples, but only 10 were severe vulnerabilities.
So some of the people from the text circles are saying that, all right, Anthropic, you put out this messaging that mythos is this all-powerful thing, but maybe these devastating exploits that you're highlighting are not so devastating and not so pressing as you might have portrayed them to be.
It was all smiles in Houston, but there was some tears actually being shed in the living room that I was watching with my fiance's family because there is just something about astronauts returning home that it hits you in the feels.
You're just so happy they're safe.
They went through so much.
And I just want to read some of the quotes from the crew.
Victor Glover said, I have not processed what we just did, and I'm afraid to even start trying.
Jeremy Hansen said, when you look up here, you're not looking at us.
We're a mirror reflecting you.
