Anthropic has announced a new AI model called Claude Mythos, which has been found to have the capability to uncover software vulnerabilities and bugs in major operating systems and web browsers. The company has decided not to release the model publicly due to its potential risks and has instead launched Project Glasswing to use the model for cyber defense.
Anthropic's new AI model, Claude Mythos, has been found to have significant capabilities. It can uncover software vulnerabilities and bugs in major operating systems and web browsers. The model found a flaw in OpenBSD, a security-focused operating system, which had gone undetected for 27 years. It also found a 16-year-old vulnerability in FFmpeg, a widely used software for handling audio and video files. Due to its potential risks, Anthropic has decided not to release the model publicly. Instead, the company has launched Project Glasswing, a coalition of tech companies and organizations to use the model for cyber defense. The goal is to give defenders a head start in finding and fixing weaknesses in critical software before similar AI capabilities become available to attackers.
