Anthropic's Mythos AI Sparks Cyber Fears

The emergence of Anthropic's Mythos model has ignited a debate over the safety of 'super-intelligent' AI agents.

Internal testing revealed the model could identify and exploit previously unknown bugs in major operating systems and web browsers.

While Anthropic claims its limited release strategy is responsible, critics argue that private firms should not have unilateral control over such powerful technology.

The U.S. Treasury and the Bank of England are now seeking access to the model to assess potential risks to the global financial system.
