OpenAI and Anthropic brief Congress and White House on cyber-capable AI models including Anthropic's Mythos
OpenAI and Anthropic held classified briefings with House Homeland Security Committee staff on their new cyber-capable AI models and their cybersecurity implications. Anthropic has withheld public release of its Mythos model due to its ability to find and exploit security flaws, while the White House is developing guidance to allow federal agencies to bypass Anthropic's supply-chain risk designation. The White House and Pentagon are reported to be taking divergent approaches to Anthropic's AI systems.
