Anthropic’s new AI model “Mythos”
• The model is part of the Claude AI family
• It is a “vulnerability discovery AI”:
• Can identify software bugs
• But also exploit them (cyber attacks)

Example:
• Found flaw in Firefox JavaScript engine
• Could gain system-level control (shell access)

➡️ Core theme: AI shifting from passive tool —> active cyber capability (offence + defence)

➡️ Mythos AI shows that modern AI is no longer just a tool to detect cyber problems - it can also automatically exploit them like a hacker.

➡️ This means:
• AI can act like both a security expert AND a cyber attacker
• Cyber attacks can become faster, automated, and large-scale
• Even non-experts can carry out complex hacking using AI

➡️ The real problem:
• Technology is advancing faster than laws and regulations

Dual-use” Nature of AI
• Same AI can:
• ✅ Fix vulnerabilities
• ❌ Exploit vulnerabilities
