These entities will now give all their IP to an American company that only promises not to spy on Americans.
Subsequently, the NSA can audit the leaked sources manually and find real exploits.

If someone is porting such disparate projects as Valkey and Lua it is just for show and will be pre-alpha forever. No one wants Bun in Rust, no one wants the rsync vibe code additions. This is just the only pro-AI comment, so the AI people voted it to the top.
I don’t care if bun is written in zig, rust, go, f# or sql. If it works, it works. I also don’t care if it’s written by humans or LLMs or robot overlords from Alpha Centauri. Again, if it works, it works. The operative word here is ‘works’. Code is now cheap, QA still isn’t. Since people don’t really like doing the same thing twice, specs for working code have never been written. Nowadays there is no reason to not cr…
So no, it doesn't "work", it just worked at some point in the past.
Is this just one giant marketing plot?
This is either a chuffed up PR move or an extremely generous alpha fold "publish all the proteins" moment
work in cyber for 15+ years, worked at largest CS vendor globally and fortune5 companies. (top of the list).
only ppl using AI are shops with clueless ppl getting flooded in nonsense.
You will see the same sentiment in a different flavor (different products) in OSS security mailing lists now.
do not fall for it. for every one of these things. Test it, verify it, for yourself. dont take anyone's word. 100B+ valuation makes external voices generally worthless (easy to buy)
Im not saying its all worthless or will never amount to anything. But test yourself. please. a lot of money is getting chucked around.
Look at it this way.
They have a stake in having companies create not very good software. They have a stake in supplying engineers to fix that. They have a stake in tools to fix problems that it creates.
you can guess the next service offering...
In case the topic of memory safety is interesting to anyone I've been experimenting with using AI agents to port common web infra projects to safe/ performant Rust. Somewhat inspired by the Bun port - was thinking that at some point memory safety might be such a big deal that people just need drop in replacements. - Valkey/ Redis port here https://github.com/ianm199/valdr (passes ~99% of single node test suite, real…
1. AI-rewrites are not clean room implementations.

What does that even mean?
Continously saying "FSD will be ready next year" for the last N years

All hype no substance.

I find this line of reasoning highly dubious. Yes, Anthropic is compute constrained, even after the SpaceX Colossus deal. But supply constraints are the normal operating mode of any market. Anthropic could choose to serve whatever models it pleases at whatever price points it chooses and let the market decide where the value is. If Mythos at $X overwhelms their capacity, they could just charge $X+1 . If still overwhe…
The question is, will anyone pay enough for Mythos to offset the opportunity cost of offering that much Opus? You don't want to end up in a spot where you don't have enough compute and your service's reliability degrades to an unusable state like xAI.
