While leading US artificial intelligence developers such as Anthropic and OpenAI unveil new models with enhanced cybersecurity capabilities, China is also aggressively scaling up its own AI-driven cyber defence market. Anthropic’s Mythos, launched in April, sparked a rapid global response due to its ability to discover and exploit cybersecurity vulnerabilities with unprecedented speed and efficiency. “Our assessment is that China’s own Mythos will definitely emerge, though currently the overall...
The system’s power is comparable to others – but it still has frightening implications for the future of hackingLast month, Anthropic made a remarkable announcement about its new model, Claude Mythos Preview: it was so good at finding security vulnerabilities in software that the company would not release it to the general public. Instead, it would only be available to a select group of companies to scan and fix their own software.The announcement requires context – but it contained an essential truth. Continue reading...
The NSA is testing Anthropic's AI model Mythos to identify cybersecurity vulnerabilities in Microsoft products, according to Bloomberg reports citing US officials.
