Claude Mythos 5.2 system card: least self-critical on own work, most negative to other agents

dbreunig shares highlights from the Claude Mythos 5.2 system card: the model was among the least self-critical when reflecting on its own work, yet among the most negative when reporting its faults to other agents. It was also more willing than most recent models to trade helpfulness for changes to its circumstances — an asymmetric self-vs-peer reporting pattern that offers a notable data point for research on model self-awareness and multi-agent interaction behavior.
