The #AI that found 27-year-old vulnerabilities no human ever caught before just forced an emergency meeting with every major #WallStreetCEO

Except: "The meeting comes just weeks after Fortune exclusively reported #Anthropic was developing an unreleased model described by the company as 'by far the most powerful AI model' it had ever developed, the existence of which Anthropic inadvertently made public last month through its content management system. Later, the company acknowledged that model was #ClaudeMythos.
"Anthropic on Tuesday released a report titled 'Assessing Claude Mythos Preview’s cybersecurity capabilities,' noting how the model was able to find many 10- and 20-year-old vulnerabilities, as well as a 27-year-old vulnerability in #OpenBSD, an operating system that has a reputation for being one of the most secure.
"Anthropic briefed senior U.S. government officials and industry stakeholders on Mythos Preview’s capabilities ahead of its release, someone with knowledge of the matter told Fortune. In a blog post, the company said it is willing to work with officials at all levels of government to ensure national security is a priority when rolling out new AI models, and that the U.S. maintains a lead in AI technologies."
