As someone who works in marketing, this is one of the cheapest tricks to sell something: "Our product is so good that it is dangerous and we cannot release it to the world". This translates to "Give us a lot of money for limited, exclusive access, sign this NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement) so no one finds out it's not that good until we make enough revenue and can claim we made a less dangerous version for all, but the better version with more risks is established as high-price product." ;)
And of course, in "AI" land, use the established "you are prompting it wrong" when customers complain that they don't see the benefits of paying a lot for something that doesn't deliver ;)

@jwildeboer Have you tried reading their 245 page long "System Card" for Mythos? I went through the first 46 pages for now and it's painful how much fearmongering and how little actual on topic substance there is.

The 2. chapter is about risk assessment and there's everything but risk assessment, including a table which shows how much faster Mythos can be compared to their other models.

For me it looks like the usual pre-IPO marketing (Reuters and other news agencies suggest late 2026).
