Anthropic's Mythos AI Sparks Alarm

The debut of Anthropic's Mythos AI model has triggered urgent discussions between tech leaders and government officials over unprecedented cybersecurity risks.

While a select group of firms is testing the model to identify vulnerabilities, U.S. and UK financial regulators warn that the technology could usher in an era of 'Bugmageddon.' The model's ability to browse the web and open computer files autonomously has raised fears that it could be weaponized for large-scale phishing and data breaches.

Anthropic has reportedly hired a Trump-linked lobbying firm as it navigates increasing scrutiny from the Pentagon and Wall Street.
