Banks warned of Anthropic's new AI model that can uncover hidden software flaws
U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell convened senior executives from Bank of America, Citi and Wells Fargo to flag cyber‑risk from Anthropic’s Claude Mythos Preview. The model can discover software vulnerabilities that human developers miss, raising concerns it could be weaponized if deployed in banking systems.

Harvey Nash’s new Tech Flix docuseries, *The AI Skills Paradox*, reveals an 82% year‑on‑year surge in demand for AI expertise while fewer than half of surveyed organisations are actively upskilling their workforce. The research highlights stark disparities in AI access tied to salary, gender and company size, underscoring a widening talent divide. The UK government’s AI Skills Boost programme targets 10 million upskilled workers by 2030, aiming to narrow the gap. Industry leaders from IBM to ARM stress that proactive training and responsible computing are essential to harness AI’s benefits.
