Anthropic's Mythos sparks AI race

U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has hailed Mythos as a critical breakthrough that will maintain America's technological edge over China.

The model's ability to chain exploits and write autonomous code has prompted Anthropic to limit its release to a small number of trusted entities.

While some industry experts question the model's novelty, its valuation reflects a massive shift in the AI talent wars.

The rise of Anthropic is reportedly causing some OpenAI investors to reconsider their positions as the competition for AI supremacy intensifies.
