That's not what's happening here. This announcement is about the velocity with which Claude finds vulnerabilities in already-existing software.

Software already exists that has been written by Claude. They absolutely are selling the means to write software, and the means to securing the insecure software. At least for the time being. In the future Mythos will probably just make it possible to prompt good software from the start.

Ok. But mostly its entirely the old software, not the new software, that the bugs are being found in.

It's messed up that Anthropic simultaneously claims to be a public benefit copro and is also picking who gets to benefit from their newly enhanced cybersecurity capabilities. It means that the economic benefit is going to the existing industry heavyweights. (And no, the Linux Foundation being in the list doesn't imply broad benefit to OSS. Linux Foundation has an agenda and will pick who benefits according to what is…

That's just in line with their ethics. They also maintain that countries other than the US should not have SOTA AI capabilities.

Depends - do you think people are good at keeping their fridge firmware up-to-date?

I’m good at keeping my fridge off the internet.

You are the exception.

AITA for thinking that PRISM was probably the state sponsored program affecting civilian life the most? And that one state is missing from the list here?

The irony of that statement given the current circumstances

I didn't see this at first, but the price is 5x Opus: "Claude Mythos Preview will be available to participants at $25/$125 per million input/output tokens", however "We do not plan to make Claude Mythos Preview generally available".

> Large American AI company does not list the US as an adversarial actor This is not a surprise or a gotcha.

Said company is literally in court against said government at the moment, after said government attempted to designate it too dangerous to do business with.

Software has been doing fine without Misanthropic. These automated tools find very little. They selected the partners because they, too, want to keep up the illusion that AI works.

Whenever a company pivots to "cyber" rhetoric, it is a clear indication that they are selling snake oil.

Secure your girl school target selectors first.

How did PRISM affect civilian life?

Honest question: how do state-sponsored attacks from China, Iran, North Korea, and Russia affect civilian life?

They made a claim that 100% of code would be AI generated in a year, over a year ago.

They were right, it's hit 100% at a number of large tech companies. (They missed their initial prediction of 90% 6 months ago, because the models then available publicly weren't capable enough.)

Please tell me those companies so I can find alternatives. I'm using AI every day and there's no way I would trust it do that.
