Dallas
MythWorx has announced the appointment of Jason Williamson as CEO. The move comes as the Dallas-based company seeks to expand its team and promote its artificial intelligence innovations, which it says go beyond traditional large language models (LLMs).
Key developments and leadership
Williamson previously served as the executive director at Oracle, where he oversaw global innovation strategy. At Oracle, Williamson helped grow the startup customer base from 250 to over 3,000. Prior to Oracle, he had leadership roles at Amazon Web Services (AWS), where he launched private equity and management advisory partnerships. Williamson is also a veteran of the U.S. Marine Corps, with experience across corporate, startup, and government sectors.
Williamson stated his focus would be on growing the team and promoting MythWorx’s AI innovations and benchmarking results. The company has publicly signaled plans to enter joint ventures and master licensing agreements to commercialize its technology, and the new CEO will lead those efforts.
Product claims and benchmarking results
MythWorx recently emerged from stealth mode and claims its technology is a step beyond traditional large language models. The company emphasizes real-time reasoning capabilities rather than chasing scale as the primary path toward artificial general intelligence (AGI).
The company’s Echo Ego v2 model achieved 71.24% accuracy in recent benchmarking through MMLU-Pro without pretraining or retries. The model answered questions in approximately 1.2 seconds per query, compared to 5-10 seconds for mainstream LLMs. Despite having only 14 billion parameters, Echo Ego v2 outperformed larger models, including DeepSeek-R1. The model recorded 87.64% accuracy on the math section and demonstrated strong reasoning in law, physics, and medical diagnostics.
MythWorx positions Echo Ego v2 as dramatically energy efficient, using about one-tenth the power required by typical LLMs for similar workloads. The company attributes the efficiency to a hybrid, human-inspired architecture and says this approach avoids reliance on power-hungry GPUs commonly used across the industry.
Technical approach and safeguards
The company describes its architecture as patterned on human cognitive processes and refers to this approach as “biomimetic learning.” MythWorx utilizes “biomimetic learning,” an architecture mimicking human cognitive processing, allowing for real-time adaptation without large datasets. The company’s model is designed to self-improve and adapt like a human brain without the need for pretraining.
MythWorx also reports that the model includes built-in moral constraints to align responses with human values of fairness, transparency, and responsibility. Company leadership has framed the development as a potential “black swan” moment for AI technology, aimed at broadening access to advanced reasoning through design choices.
Company background and commercialization
The company is based in Dallas and was founded in 2023. The company’s technology has been developed over 27 years, according to Co-Founder and Chairman Wade Myers. MythWorx is entering joint ventures and master licensing agreements to market its technology and scale its commercial presence.
Performance and market positioning
MythWorx highlights its model’s speed, accuracy, and energy efficiency as its main competitive advantages. The company emphasizes its technology’s real-time reasoning capabilities rather than scale as a move toward artificial general intelligence (AGI). Observers will be watching independent verifications, adoption by partners, and comparisons against established models to assess those claims in practice.
