>Thirdly it compares to GPT 5.5

mythos is <10% ahead of gpt 5.5 on all benchmarks, which it gains by being several times the size of opus. had it been economical to provide, it would've been released to the public on day one instead of the marketing circus those effective altruism clowns had exhibited. admitting that it costs >1000% to run inference on a <10% better model would've been very damning.

> it costs >1000% to run inference

do you have a source for this claim? i thought LLM providers earn high margins from inference (charged by token). is this no longer the case?

		This was just theorised. The leaked OpenAI financials suggest otherwise (because of shady naming of losses) The only ones who seem to profit are the ones running smaller Chinese models. Even NVIDIA seems to have to "reinvest" their profits into sponsoring companies to buy their cards now.
