Here is Dean Ball on Mythos. Here is John Loeber. While I am seeing some likely overstatement, probably this is a real turning point nonetheless, and we need to think further about what is best to do. No b.s. on data center slowdowns and algorithmic discrimination, rather actual thought on how to regulate something that actually will matter. And be glad we got there first. But how long will it be before an open source version, even if somewhat inferior, is available? Will OpenAI and Google soon be showing similar capabilities? (And how will that shift the equilibrium?) How will the willingness of attackers to pay for tokens evolve, relative to the willingness of defenders to pay for tokens? As a side effect, will this also lead to higher economic concentration, as perhaps only the larger institutions can invest in quality patches rapidly enough? How many things will be taken offline altogether? It was the government of Singapore that started moving in that direction in 2016 with their Internet Surfing Separation. Which of the pending hacks and leaks will embarrass you the most?
And if nothing else, this is proof we are not all going to be jobless, albeit for reasons that are not entirely positive.
