Acephali:

By restricting access to Mythos to a closed circle of mega-corporations, we are witnessing the monopolization of the ultimate cyber-capability. A handful of unelected private entities now possess an asymmetrical power to fundamentally secure, or theoretically dismantle, the digital foundations of the modern world

First, the UK government and the US government have access to it. So public entities also have access, in addition to the Linux fundation. Also, you have to consider big tech rely on open source software themselves, there is no inventive for them that such software becomes vulnerable.

I agree with the power assymetry, however this article lacks nuance.

PG bans AI-generated article, so I ask that @team removes it.

There are factual or logic errors in this article. For example, the Korean article talking about Mythos doesn’t cite 2 trillion as a figure. This would seem extremely high - in any case talking in absolute numbers without context/scale is something AI picked up from training data without understanding it’s just sensationalist BS.

Also there is a striking fallacy at the end. It both says only Big Companies will be able to access AI and use it to protect themselves but at the same time say those tools (referring to Mythos-level AIs) will proliferate and be accessible to many Cyber criminals.
