The Treasury Secretary and the Fed Chair just called an emergency meeting with the CEOs of America's six largestbanks over the cyber risks posed by Anthropic's Mythos AI model.Bessent and Powell summoned the heads of Citigroup, Morgan Stanley, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, and GoldmanSachs to the Treasury building on Tuesday, arranged on short notice and previously unreported. All areclassified as systemically important financial institutions. JPMorgan's Jamie Dimon couldn't attend but JPMorganis already among Anthropic's 12 launch partners.The model is Anthropic's Mythos. During testing, it autonomously identified and exploited vulnerabilities inevery major operating system and web browser. It found thousands of zero-day flaws, including a 27-year-old bugin OpenBSD and a vulnerability in FFmpeg that had survived five million passes by automated testing tools. Noneof this required specialized cybersecurity training. The capability emerged from general advances in coding andreasoning.Powell's presence is the signal. This isn't a policy meeting. It's being treated as systemic risk. Having boththe Treasury Secretary and the Fed Chair in the room together on an AI cybersecurity briefing is without recentprecedent.Anthropic has restricted Mythos to roughly 40 companies through Project Glasswing, backed by up to $100 millionin usage credits for defensive security work. Partners include Amazon, Apple, Microsoft, Google, Nvidia, Cisco,CrowdStrike, and Palo Alto Networks. The goal is to harden critical infrastructure before comparable modelsemerge from other labs.As we covered earlier this week, a security researcher has argued that some of Mythos's headline numbers areoverstated.
