Bessent Summoned Wall Street Leaders to Discuss Anthropic’s New AI

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell summoned Wall Street leaders to an urgent meeting on concerns that the latest artificial intelligence model from Anthropic will usher in an era of greater cyber risk. The meeting was to make sure banks are aware of possible future risks raised by Anthropic’s Mythos — a more powerful system that the AI firm has said is capable of identifying and then exploiting vulnerabilities in every major operating system and web browser when directed by a user to do so.
