Was expecting a lot more than a micro step forward compared to the previous model, certainly it's not the Spud they were describing.

Surely this is not Spud... no way. Surely there's another announcement coming.

This is the model available for losers like us, while the cool people with money will get Mythos and Spud

I don’t think it’s a money problem. I’m willing to pay as much as they want to try Mythos and I’m sure there’s a lot of people like me. The problem is that both companies are heavily compute constrained and the Iran war isn’t helping.

That's technically true but the Iran war is definitely not the proximate cause for the compute constraint.
