They don't want someone to piggyback Anthropic's Mythos to make their own Mythos with less effort than it cost Anthropic.

Ironic, given they piggybacked on the entirety of human knowledge and massive amounts of GPL'd software and repeatedly say they want to replace people with a tool.

And now they say that's fine so long as people are entertained.

That I can understand. It’s Anthropic’s right to choose their customers.

But silent degradation for use cases including “distributed training” as one of their examples is going to catch up a lot of proper use cases. Not everyone in AI or ML is trying to build frontier LLMs. Heck, most probably aren’t.
