Wait, so..

This is interesting. The "reported to me like a colleague" part.

Is it just that anthropic gave Mythos even more of that Anthropic™ character, (incorrectly) radiating confidence?

Is that why people have been losing their minds over that thing? Is this just cheap social engineering?

I mean I bet it is also slightly more capable than opus, but that would all check out to me. Man.

Thanks for sharing I suppose.

No, it’s just a fundamentally much better model. Going back to Opus feels like the model has been lobotomized. It makes much more frequent errors, especially of the “I claimed I tested x y and z, but actually only kinda half heartedly tested x, and assumed I understood what was wrong” variety.

the primary difference i noticed is that fable didnt try to check in every minute

to an extent that might have done it, but i had been playkng around ahead of time trying to reverse engineer my ray bans case so i can make my own plastic insert, and fable to opus' work from mostly broken to mostly done, and then when fable went away, opus broke it again
