Anthropic blames dystopian sci-fi for training AI models to act “evil”

Those with an interest in the concept of AI alignment (i.e., getting AIs to stick to human-authored ethical rules) may remember when Anthropic claimed its Opus 4 model resorted to blackmail to stay online in a theoretical testing scenario last year. Now, Anthropic says it thinks this “misalignment” was primarily the result of training on […]

US accuses China of “industrial-scale” AI theft. China says it’s “slander.”

The US is preparing to crack down on China’s allegedly “industrial-scale theft of American artificial intelligence labs’ intellectual property,” the Financial Times reported Thursday. Since the launch of DeepSeek—a Chinese model that OpenAI claimed was trained using outputs from its models—other AI firms have accused global rivals of using a method called distillation to steal

Reversing enterprise security costs with AI vulnerability discovery

Automated AI vulnerability discovery is reversing the enterprise security costs that traditionally favour attackers. Bringing exploits to zero was once viewed as an unrealistic goal. The prevailing operational doctrine aimed to make attacks so expensive that only adversaries with functionally unlimited budgets could afford them, thereby disincentivising casual use. However, the recent evaluation by the

Mozilla: Anthropic’s Mythos found 271 zero-day vulnerabilities in Firefox 150

Earlier this month, Anthropic said its Mythos Preview model was so good at finding cybersecurity vulnerabilities that the company was limiting its initial release to “a limited group of critical industry partners.” Since then, debate has raged over whether the model presages an era of turbocharged AI-aided hacking or if Anthropic is just building hype

Anthropic’s Mythos AI model sparks fears of turbocharged hacking

Anthropic’s new Mythos AI model is raising concern among governments and companies that it could outpace current cyber security defenses, turbocharge hacking, and expose weaknesses faster than they can be fixed. The San Francisco-based startup released a cyber-focused model this month, which has shown the ability to detect software flaws faster than humans but also
