Price discrimination is I think fine and reasonable so long if you can drum up the cash you can use it how you want within their ToS.

Although mental safety gymnastics aside, getting the most amount of intelligence for the cheapest amount of cost to normal people seems like the most ethical thing a big lab could do.

Going around and granting different tiers of intelligence to different insiders, friends, or companies is majorly problematic long-term.

Heck right now, the tokens you buy today for “Opus 4.8”, no one even knows or believes will be the same “Opus 4.8” just 3 days from now.

some of the bench marks i have seen on also include cost where one scan of the codebase cost tens of thousands of dollars.

this one [0] notes one run cost $20k to run but another cost $50.

/security-review already exists so I don't think it would be crazy to have a /mythos-security-review as more thourough command as well. I think it's more likely it is going to be released at some point to the general public though - although the the pricing might make it quite unattractive.
