Pure flour-power. Hearty enough to carry you through lunch.
Summary
An article examining the apparent contradiction between Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei's public claims about exponential AI growth and the findings from his own company's Claude Mythos model system card. Amodei's essay uses a Lord of the Rings analogy comparing AI to Hobbits and political institutions to slow-moving Ents, but Anthropic's internal research reportedly contradicts his optimistic exponential growth narrative.
