Interesting how he mentions LLMs have a 50% error rate, and predicts how no one will pay for a tool with such a poor rate.

    Here a comment on this from usernomdeguerre on hacker news (ycombinator.com).

    “His” and “GKH” refers to Greg Kroah-Hartmann, who is maintainer of the stable kernel series and the speaker in the video.

    I’ve included a few slides into text that i thought were eye-opening to me:

    From his Kernel Recipes 2026 slide on Mythos

    
  Mythos's 79 vulnerabilities:
  24 - no detail at all "something crashed"
  14 - not a bug at all
  3 - totally made up data
  15 - already fixed in latest release
    - 11 by others
    - 4 by anthropic
  20 - fixes were needed
    - 7 "assume a malicious filesystem image"
    - 2 "assume you can inject a malicious network packet into the middle of the stack"
    - 2 "NOMMU"
    - 6 sctp networking issues for untrusted devices
    - 2 ipv6 minor network issues 
    - 1 gpu driver for local malicious user

    GHK called this “10 ‘real’ bugfixes”, which to me sounds like there’s a wild hype machine around these companies and uncritical parroting of every press release they make that falls apart when you engage the affected real experts.
