Brief

AlexFinn (2026-04-08) reports Claude Mythos is released but inaccessible to them, while they’ve installed GLM 5.1 on a Mac Studio and claim it outperforms Qwen and Gemma, runs continuous web scraping to generate content/playbooks every minute at zero cost, is strong at coding, and represents open-source democratization edging toward Opus 4.6-level capability.

Bad news: Claude Mythos is out and you can't use it sucker. It's too dangerous in your hands.

Good news: I just downloaded GLM 5.1 onto my Mac Studio, and it's by far the best open source model I've ever used

Crushing every task I give it compared to Qwen and Gemma.

Faster too

I have it scraping the web and putting together content and playbooks for me every minute of the day

Working nonstop. Costs me literally $0. Also is very strong at coding too

Is it Opus 4.6? No, but it's getting closer. And nobody can lobotomize it or lower my limits or take it away from me

A 24/7/365 employee that never eats, sleeps, or complains. Just works. For free.

The greatest technology in the history of this species should be democratized, not gatekept. And that's what the open source community is doing right now

The people who bought hardware are prepared for the future. The people attacking the people with hardware are on the wrong side of history.

Superintelligence on your desk is within reach.
