The Anthropic Mythos Model: Too Dangerous to Release

#2525 - Nick Bostrom · Jul 14, 2026 Technology

Anthropic's most powerful model, Mythos, hasn't been publicly released because it can easily detect vulnerabilities in software — a significant cyber offense capability. A restricted version (Fable-5) was briefly released before the US government blocked non-citizens from accessing it, triggering weeks of negotiations.

Steve Jobs Was Already 4 OS Releases Ahead of Intel

Former Intel CEO on What Went Wrong, What's Next + Lovable … · Jul 15, 2026 Technology

When Intel offered to help Apple port macOS to x86, Jobs dropped a bombshell: 'I've been working on that for the last 4 releases.' Jobs had been quietly preparing Apple's core technology for a potential future switch for years before anyone at Intel suspected. This foresight — building optionality in secret — is what made Apple Silicon inevitable.

How Intel Scoffed at NVIDIA — Then Lost the AI Era

Former Intel CEO on What Went Wrong, What's Next + Lovable … · Jul 15, 2026 Technology

At Intel's CPU peak, the company literally laughed at NVIDIA's machines. GPUs were for gamers, not serious compute. But Jensen Huang kept building a deeper software stack — CUDA, SIMD, multi-threading — until Japanese HPC researchers realized these 'graphics cards' could tackle the world's hardest workloads. Intel even had its own answer, Project Larrabee, killed the week Gelsinger left.

TSMC's Foundry Vision: From Trivial to Dominant

Former Intel CEO on What Went Wrong, What's Next + Lovable … · Jul 15, 2026 Technology

TSMC's original vision — become the factory for the entire semiconductor industry — seemed so niche that Intel didn't take it seriously. Intel was vertically integrated and proprietary; TSMC standardized everything and welcomed any customer. Steady progress and a demanding Apple drove them from irrelevant to producing 5x Intel's wafer volume by 2021, now 7x.

AI Is a Decades-Long Build, Not a Bubble

Former Intel CEO on What Went Wrong, What's Next + Lovable … · Jul 15, 2026 Technology

The AI buildout has a natural circuit breaker: energy. Nobody builds data centers without power, and global energy capacity is expanding at just 4–5% per year. That constraint limits how overheated the market can get. Meanwhile the value of a token — a unit of intelligence — is nearly infinite if it improves logistics, finance, and labor. Gelsinger sees two decades of growth, not years.

Quantum Computing: Real Results Before 2030

Former Intel CEO on What Went Wrong, What's Next + Lovable … · Jul 15, 2026 Technology

Quantum has been '5 years away' for 25 years — but Gelsinger says this time is different. We now know how to build qubits, error-correct them, and write algorithms against them. Multiple modalities (trapped ions, photonic, spin) are all showing results. Engineering scale is the only remaining challenge, and he expects quantum supremacy across multiple industries before 2030, with encryption-breaking Q-Day around 2032–2033.

Data point $500M ARR

Former Intel CEO on What Went Wrong, What's Next + Lovable … · Jul 15, 2026 Technology

One million new projects every week. Over 50 million total apps built. 700 million monthly visits to those apps. $500 million in annualized revenue by May 2026 — all in 20 months since launch. These aren't vanity metrics; they represent a platform where businesses are actually running. Lovable isn't a prototype tool anymore.

Who Builds on Lovable? The 80% Who Aren't Engineers

Former Intel CEO on What Went Wrong, What's Next + Lovable … · Jul 15, 2026 Technology

Four out of five Lovable users have zero engineering background. They're first-time founders, enterprise employees building side hustles, and small business owners figuring out what to build. The 20% who are technical use Lovable because it enforces best practices automatically — secure payments, security scans, architecture guardrails — things even developers appreciate not managing manually.
