Will It Mythos? 28 days ago

Many security tools for doing security audits with LLMs are based around a "look at this file" loop

This makes sense. At most it converts the question of ability to a question of cost (i.e. fire up a prompt for each file).

This article reduces the hype about Mythos in my mind: A new model that can find 9 new bugs while no previous model can identify them, is a whole different story from what this article demonstrates: that only 2/9 of the detected bugs are new for Mythos.

Great work.

You can see which bugs each model found in the full report.

This should have probably been surfaced at the text. To answer my own question: If one uses gemma4-26b-a4b, mimo-v2.5-pro and gemini-3.5-flash then 7/9 bugs are covered, while no model can uncover the remaining two.

And, you have misunderstood what the benchmark does. It tells the model to audit the file, and it is allowed to look at the rest of the repo. It is not pointed at the bug.

I obviously meant that the model was pointed to the bug report. What would have been the point of providing the actual bug. This is still easier than telling Mythos to generally look at a codebase and find any bug.

Id soft folks were using 2 graphics cards, an EGA/VGA and an MDA one to do multihead debugging. It was possible because the two card technologies actually mapped their frame buffers onto two separate address ranges. Cool stuff.

"Every mathematician wants to discover a mathematician's lemma."

It might have been easy to guess, but you didn't really think of it in the past 51 years since the Commodore 128 was introduced, did you?

Will It Mythos? 29 days ago

The "best" model finds 4/9 bugs. It would be interesting to see if all models find the _same_ bugs. Does a collection of models exist that can cover all 9?

Also, it seems to me that pointing a model to a bug and asking it to solve it is somewhat easier than what Mythos did, which if I understand correctly, was to generally look at a codebase and find any bug. Even so, non-Mythos models only managed to fix 4/9 of these bugs.

I think the article makes the point that Mythos is at a different level.

Minor correction:

An experienced guitarist cannot distinguish between "captured" amps, or amps which at their core simulate vacuum tubes at the software level. I definitely can't tell the two apart. However, I believe it is easy to distinguish a pure vacuum tube-based circuit from a JFET/MOSFET-based one.

There do exist vacuum tube replacements like the AMT 12AX7WS [1] or Jet City's RetroVales [2], but I would argue that the fact that they try to emulate tubes via transistors is a strong indicator that the natural circuits for both sound distinct enough for guitarists.

Sup-par phrasing is a subtle advantage of non-AI generated text. In the past, I would be put off by this bad phrasing and the typo ("requier") in the text, but these days, it's a signal that a human took the time to write this, which makes me happy to see.

..or is it "sub-par"?

Someone should add a grid of mics and speakers inside a keyboard to record impulse responses for different kinds of keys. In this way, one can first do noise cancellation for the currently used keys, and then apply an IR to make the keyboard sound like another one.

In 1955, he was promoted to tenured associate professor. In December 1957, Asimov was dismissed from his teaching post, with effect from June 30, 1958, due to his lack of research.

I thought the whole point of getting tenure is that you can't get fired.

Mythos is speculated to have 10 trillion parameters. Almost certainly they were training it for months.
