Give us Mythos! This piecemealing doesn't help Anthropic at all, especially psychologically! They are playing a dangerous game, and I see many people leaving Claude Code for good - both due to the subsidy games, and for Anthropic not dogfooding and using unreleased models internally and giving us subpar ones. Benchmarks are nice, but the real-world experience is quite different - neither can you notice these slight improvements, nor are competitors that much worse based on some generic benchmarks.
Anthropic seems to be making very business unfriendly decisions lately. Why are they taking so long to release Mythos? They're hurting their own lead.
If they're worried about misuse they could just KYC the damn thing! It's not hard.
They need to strike the balance between hyping and rug-pulling (aka "we can't release mythos, it is simply too dangerous and powerful" and "we're pleased we were able to release mythos to all of you – mere 50 days after claiming it was simply too dangerous –, unfortunately we are also now sharply raising the pricing on our subscriptions going forward").
Vote with your wallet. Cancel your Claude subscription and tell them why. GPT 5.5 > Opus 4.7 (haven't had enough time with 4.8 yet to make my decision)
I'm not that mad. 4.8 fixed the 4.7 problems for me. I just wish I had Mythos
I'm sure waiting another week or three won't kill you.
I am also pushing my office to use chatgpt. Misanthropic thinks they are some kind of novel org doing whole humanity a favor...
