Anthropic Mythos AI sparks fear

Mythos represents a new class of 'agentic' AI that can identify and exploit software vulnerabilities with impunity.

A small group of unauthorized users reportedly gained access to the model by guessing its location, leading to concerns that the technology may already be compromised.

Anthropic's valuation has surged toward $1 trillion as investors scramble for exposure to the firm's advanced research.

Meanwhile, the UK government is in talks with the company to secure access for banks to test their own defenses against the model.
