This is probably even the "fun" part of the whole picture. The purely dystopia starts when investment firms just silently grow bigger and bigger data centers like cancer. There will be no press releases, no papers, no chance anyone without billions will even know the details yet alone get access. One day we realise the worlds resources (maybe not as in the paperclip maximiser, but as in memory, energy, GPUs, water, locations) are consumed by trading models and the data centres are already guarded by robot armies. While we were distracted frighting with anthropic and openAI the real war was already over. Mythos is one sign in this direction but i also met a few people who were claiming to fund fairly large research and training operations just by internal models working on financial markets. I have no way to verify those claims but this happened 3 times now and the papers/research they were working on looked pretty solid and did not seem like they were running kimi openclaw on polymarket but actual models on some significant funds. Would be really interested if anyone here has some details on this reality. I would also not be surprised if this is a thing that people in SF just claim to sound dangerous and powerful.
