The weird position they find themselves in now is that they have to keep making it smarter... but they already made it too smart (Mythos). I'm not sure how that's going to work out exactly.
They find an arbitrary intelligence cutoff point between Opus and Mythos, label it "acceptable risk", and then the labs coordinate to gradually nudge that line forward and hope the internet doesn't break?
I think we will see unbundling of large model into submodels: modular, smaller and efficient, only include what you need eg a CUA model, a reasoning model, a legal model, a writing model, a coding model (this could get subdivided into different languages). That way you only update that submodel which needs retraining.
