Anthropic's Mythos AI sparks alarm

The launch of Anthropic's Mythos model has triggered an urgent debate over the safety and security of artificial intelligence.

The model is reportedly capable of identifying and exploiting zero-day vulnerabilities with unprecedented speed and accuracy, leading the Department of Defense to classify it as a supply-chain risk.

Despite these concerns, some U.S. officials are encouraging Wall Street banks to deploy the system internally to bolster their own defenses.

UK regulators are also rushing to assess the model's impact on critical infrastructure, as the AI has already identified thousands of potential flaws in existing systems.
