Joshua Rudd, director of the National Security Agency (NSA) and U.S. Cyber Command, told him Anthropic's artificial intelligence (AI) model "Mythos" was able to penetrate "almost all of our classified systems" in hours rather than weeks. The extent of the alleged compromise remains unclear, and no public details have been released regarding how Mythos reportedly gained access or what systems were affected.

It also comes amid recent U.S. government restrictions on Anthropic's ability to export the model, citing national security concerns. Source:
