While they’re claiming that this has nothing to do with Cthulhu, I think it’s likely that some subset of the Anthropic leadership (probably including Dario) is deliberately including pieces that are actively congruent with the “building God” narrative.
The name “mythos” seems a bit too eldritch for my liking. Brings to mind Cthulhu.
For the sake of the epistemic commons, I want to ask: had you seen previous discourse on the name before noticing that connection yourself?
No, I hadn’t been following any discourse about this.
