AI BriefingAI Called In the Bank CEOs
Key point
The US Treasury and the Fed urgently convened bank CEOs over cyber risks from Anthropic's Mythos AI.
Details
At the US Treasury building, Scott Bessent and Jerome Powell convened major bank CEOs to discuss the cyber risks posed by Anthropic's Mythos Preview.
- Attendees: CEOs of Citigroup, Morgan Stanley, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Goldman Sachs
- Jamie Dimon did not attend due to a scheduling conflict
- Regulators treated this as a risk to the financial system as a whole, viewing such AI as capable of triggering new forms of cyberattacks.
Anthropic stated that Mythos Preview can find vulnerabilities in major operating systems and web browsers, and in some cases even create exploits for them. The company is holding off on public release and instead using it for defensive security work through Project Glasswing, which lets only tech and financial partners use it first.
According to the article, regulators in Canada and the UK are also examining similar risks. The point is not simply AI news—it's that offensive security use of high-performance models has landed on the regulatory agenda for the financial sector.
