Go read the safeguards section in the report and you will realize why that is.
These models are heavily as safeguarded and that was the initial reason why they said they couldn't and haven't released Mythos because that model is the one without the safeguards.

Have you been patching your systems for the past two months? It was crazy even if you completely forget the supply chain literal FUBARs and you must’ve been living under a rock to not see OpenAI (accidentally) pwning hugging face
> now not so much
OpenAI Huggingface breach begs to differ
Do you have an example of the "doomsday marketing" you're referring to?
