It is difficult to compare these two accounts since Daniel Stenberg didn't get access to Mythos himself, and we have no information about how it was run compared to the other AI models that have been used on curl. It is possible that Mythos is not much better than these other models, but it is also possible that the curl team simply made better use of the other models.

Part of what made Mythos so effective for Mozilla was the integrated agentic workflow where it not only looked for bugs, but then created an exploit to demonstrate them, and ran that exploit while dynamic analysis was enabled verifying that invalid memory access occurred. In this case it hard to know how much of their success was because they put more effort into the harness compared to previous tools (we know they did), or if Mythos was more suitable for this sort of workflow to begin with.

Not many apple-to-apple comparisons to be made with Mythos at this point.
