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.

The Trump administration has drafted GSA guidelines that would force AI vendors to grant the government an irrevocable license for "all lawful use" of their systems. The draft also bans ideological or partisan bias in AI outputs and requires companies to disclose any model tweaks made to satisfy non‑U.S. regulations such as the EU Digital Services Act. The rules arrive after the Pentagon scrapped a $200 million Anthropic contract when the firm demanded limits on mass surveillance and autonomous weapons. The move signals a push for tighter federal control over civilian AI procurement.
