## Resource

What happens when an AI model is considered too powerful to release? In this episode of the Market Maker Podcast, we unpack one of the most bizarre and important stories in tech right now, as Anthropic’s Mythos model sparks debate about whether AI companies are building the future or just mastering the art of hype. From a strange moment involving an AI sending emails while its creator was eating a sandwich, to the wider implications for cybersecurity and global power, this story raises bigger questions than it answers. We also explore the potential collapse of LIV Golf after billions in Saudi investment and what it tells us about the limits of capital when strategy doesn’t deliver results. Finally, we break down the news that Apple CEO Tim Cook is stepping down after 15 years, what his legacy really is, and what the shift to a product-focused successor could mean for the next era of the world’s most valuable company. If you want to understand the stories moving markets without the noise, this is the place. (00:00) Intro & Topics in Focus (02:27) What is Claude Mythos (09:02) Hype or Real?
