AI News: The Scariest AI Model Ever!
This week's AI news roundup covers Anthropic's Claude Mythos and Project Glasswing, Meta's MuseSpark, ZAI's GLM 5.1, Google Gemini updates, and the AI video model C-Dance, among other developments.
The most significant news is Anthropic's Claude Mythos, a frontier AI model described as a general-purpose, unreleased model with advanced coding capabilities. According to Anthropic, Mythos can surpass most humans in finding and exploiting software vulnerabilities. It has already identified thousands of high-severity vulnerabilities, including some in major operating systems and web browsers. Benchmarks show Mythos significantly outperforming previous models like Opus 4.6 in cybersecurity vulnerability reproduction, software engineering, and multimodal understanding. For instance, it found a 27-year-old vulnerability in OpenBSD and a 16-year-old vulnerability in FFMPEG.
