Mythos just lost its preview label on Google Cloud (HACKERS ERA)
DISCLAIMER: that means coming days we probably could see the release of the most dangerous model for humanity which literally cracked MacOS for 5 days
WHY THIS MATTERS:
- Every recent Anthropic model that hit Vertex AI followed the same path: preview label, label removed, public blog post. Opus 4.7 ran this *exact sequence* in the days right before its public release
- The preview → GA transition on Vertex AI isn't a UI change. It's a *gated release stage* that requires sign-off from product and security teams on both Anthropic and Google. The label coming off means the model has cleared production-grade review
- Vertex AI is the enterprise rail. Once a model is GA there, every Fortune 500 with a GCP contract can hit it from day zero. Faster distribution than the Anthropic console itself
- The price per token on Vertex AI is set by Anthropic, not Google. Once the public price drops, the cost of red-teaming this model falls dramatically. Work that was previously limited to a handful of labs becomes accessible to *any developer with a credit card*
- This isn't a leak. It's a coordinated launch sequence between two of the largest cloud platforms in the world, and *we're watching step one*
ANTHROPIC 🔥: Claude Mythos model has been spotted on Google Cloud Console.

It is hard to imagine that Anthropic would change its mind and release it publicly but they could act as a model provider for those companies who have access to the model and run their stuff on GCP.
