Wall Street and the White House are alarmed that Mythos, an AI system from Anthropic, could devastate global software security. The threat: AI will find vulnerabilities faster, discover far more flaws, and generate exploits instantly, flooding security teams with zero-day attacks they cannot contain or patch.

Recently, the heads of top Wall Street finance firms met to discuss how Mythos may put global banking at risk. The White House called in Anthropic to discuss the risks. And let me be clear, Anthropic is not a security company. They are a brilliant AI company. So what are the cybersecurity companies who had early access saying? They too are very concerned. So why is it a problem? Well, the speed of vulnerability discovery will shrink to a small fraction of what it is now. The number of vulnerabilities discovered will rise sharply. Exploits will be created very soon after discovery for all of them, not just a select few. And more zero-day attacks will happen, tying up security operations, crisis response, digital forensics, and incident response. This doesn't just put pressure on developers, it crushes their process system for patching.
