Trump officials may be encouraging banks to test Anthropic's Mythos model | TechCrunch
"Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell summoned bank executives for a meeting this week where they encouraged the executives to use Anthropic's new Mythos model to detect vulnerabilities."
"Anthropic announced the model this week but said it would be limiting access for now, in part because Mythos - despite not being trained specifically for cybersecurity - is too good at finding security vulnerabilities."
"The report is particularly surprising since Anthropic is currently battling the Trump administration in court over the Department of Defense's designation of Anthropic as a supply-chain risk."
"Meanwhile, the Financial Times reports that U.K. financial regulators are also discussing the risk posed by Mythos."
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell met with bank executives to promote the use of Anthropic's Mythos model for identifying vulnerabilities. Initially, only JPMorgan Chase had access, but other major banks are now testing it. Anthropic has limited access to Mythos due to its effectiveness in finding security vulnerabilities. The company is also involved in legal disputes regarding its designation as a supply-chain risk by the Department of Defense. U.K. financial regulators are also considering the risks associated with Mythos.
