Mythos couldn't fix this vulnerability
They said it was very dangerous, it probably went rogue
Mythos decided to fix the huge Cybersecurity risks of Claude Opus/Sonnet by bringing down Claude!

The thing about status pages is they have to be up when you're down, and (if your service is non trivial) they have to be able to handle a traffic profile that basically looks like DDOS. So, you're paying for the hosting infra more than the software.
This is fundamentally the argument against all "SaaS is dead due to AI" claims. Replicating the basic functionality for most SaaS is trivial, it's the "everything else" part that you're actually paying for.

The steelman version of "SaaS is dead due to AI" isn't that SaaS companies will disappear, it's that competition will greatly intensify, to the extent that it becomes a commodity business with thin margins, rather than the money printer it is today.

#53It's strange to think how dependent people have become on these tools to the point where they can't function until they're back to normal.
This is true in many industries. Try to build a house without tools.
Yeah, completely analogous. Physical tools aren't subscription-based and prone to outages. Except when they are, but that's – luckily – still something that people feel strongly negative about.
And if my IDE or compiler (or computer!) stopped working because it requires a connection to the mothership I'd be livid. But I guess the cloud-everything, subscription-everything model has successfully made people accept an objectively worse world.

Nah even the trivial part is too much for most businesses to do themselves.
Most companies aren’t going to opt for a bespoke solution to things if something tried and true already exists. Maybe the really small simple applications will be affected, but the ones with hundreds of features and years of experience will be fine.

#55I got 2 500s and quickly popped over to codex since I was just doing documentation and planning work and didn't neeeeeeed claude. He's already back for me. :) To another's point, yeah, it's sad that Claude taking a brief hiatus just halts workflow. I imagine my whole team just started packing for a beach trip. Then again, I suppose if the CPA office computers go down, everyone doesn't dust off giant ledgers and quill…
I want to like Claude but I keep having to pop over to codex and I feel at some point I'll stop starting with Claude and just use Codex from the start.

Even stranger when they arguably don't function reliably even when it's "normal".

#57Claude.ai is down… Powered by Atlassian StatusPage. SaaS is dead, but even Anthropic needs SaaS!

when you are funded by investment money, you don't need to care much about these things.

Try going a day or two without being in any way connected to the internet.
I honestly recommend doing so at least once per year. It's genuinely useful to notice which dependency you have and, if you want, find fallbacks.

#59World: What's your uptime? Anthropic: 9. World: 9 nines? That's awesome! Anthropic: No, a singular 9. 90-something percent uptime.
With mythos, all you need will be 0.9%

#60Claude going down is how I know I can start messaging with my west coast friends.
