Anthropic AI model alarms regulators

Regulators and financial leaders are on high alert following the release of Anthropic’s latest artificial intelligence model, Mythos.

In a rare joint session, top Treasury and Federal Reserve officials warned Wall Street executives that the model’s ability to exploit deep software flaws could usher in a dangerous new era of cybersecurity threats.

Anthropic has limited the model's release to a select group of partners, citing its potential for misuse by malicious actors.

The development has triggered a sharp sell-off in traditional cybersecurity stocks as the industry grapples with the implications of agentic AI.
