I like the Register's headline: "Anthropic’s bug-hunting Mythos was greatest marketing stunt ever, says cURL creator"
... even though I did not say that. 😂

@bagder interesting to get some more details on how these things work. It does get more difficult - more marketing headlines, more "WOW" moments.
@bagder Damn! You should put some kind of notice on them for misquoting you, though!
This might escalate 🤔
come on you said that from what you can tell it isn't that impressive that's basically a failing grade.
@bagder your article made it abundantly clear that curl has already been extensively audited for years using all of the tools and techniques available. It is nice that a tool can find a single new bug with a small number of false positives.
@philvuchetich it found more than one bug actually. One vulnerability, but something around twenty bugs
How about that? You don't even need AI to hallucinate stuff!
@bagder
But do you agree that it's a marketing stunt, but it's not the greatest? 😛
@bagder "Stunt" as in "stunted"? It was so fucking obvious -.-
@bagder to be honest, this journalist's writing his quite hard for me to read
> [Stenberg] concluded the hype was mainly marketing
I am not entirely sure how to read this paragraph.
@bagder You didn’t say anything like that. You don’t talk that way. Why do they turn everything into clickbait?
@bagder aw I LOVE to see headlines like this one 🙌
especially as I’m in the middle of reading @emilymbender and @alex’s superb book “The AI Con”
@bagder Well, but besides the catchy headline they article remains close to your own blog post, wouldn't you say? To me it seems like a well written article about your findings.
@taschenorakel agreed. I also emailed with the writer before he posted that. I just reacted on the choice of headline.
@bagder Yeah, stupid age of click-bait. Something everyone doing relevant stuff these days has to cope with somehow.
@bagder I was wondering how you‘d take that headline when, as a modest Swede, you would never say it like that. 🤗
@bagder
I guess the LLM summary of your blog post did...
@bagder "you're right to push back on that. let me rephrase..." 🙂
