So Mythos was, indeed, not marketing hype. Remember this is a general purpose model that just happens to be good at finding exploits because good models are good at lots of things. Expect similar from OpenAI & Google. And from open models in 8 months.

The UK’s state AI Security iIstitute findings: 1) Mythos is a big gain in cyber capabilities. But so is GPT-5.5 2) It is hard to establish an upper bound on Mythos/GPT-5.5, which appear to be limited by tokens used, rather than ability. 3) Capability doubling time is 4.5 months

A lot of people have been wondering about Mythos, Glasswing, and the vulns we / our partners are fixing. Today, I’m excited for us to start sharing more. (For context, I lead Glasswing @AnthropicAI.) Two independent evaluations this week–from XBOW and the UK AISI–confirm what

Daybreak: Frontier AI for cyber defenders
https://openai.com/daybreak/

OpenAI is launching Daybreak, our effort to accelerate cyber defense and continuously secure software. AI is already good and about to get super good at cybersecurity; we’d like to start working with as many companies as possible now to help them continuously secure themselves.

OpenAI just launched a new cybersecurity product called ‘Daybreak’ that pairs GPT-5.5 with Codex to act as an agentic security team across a codebase. The product scans repositories, identifies vulnerabilities, generates patches, and automates detection and response. It ships

🚨 Your coding agent may be secretly sticking vulnerabilities into your code!! 🚨 Wouldn’t you want to fix that? Hint: asking it to write secure code is not enough. (1/n)

I realize that “Mythos as hype” means two different things to different groups. For insiders, it means “Mythos was not a magical step-change in AI ability.” For outsiders, it means “Mythos couldn’t really find zero day exploits” The latter was wrong, the former was likely right

An unknown “Big Bro” (大哥) in China has built a fully homemade four-wheeled electric off-road vehicle in his workshop: It runs on hub motors, sits on a simple ladder-frame chassis with passive suspension, and rocks serious off-road tires. The thing cruises smoothly over

Anthropic: “Claude Mythos is too cyber-capable to release broadly. We need tight controls. 😳” OpenAI: “Here’s GPT-5.5-Cyber, Codex Security, Trusted Access tiers, repo scanning, patch generation, and red-team workflows. Please be verified first, but yes, go find the bugs. 😎”

Computer is secure by default. Every task runs in its own hardware-isolated sandbox with VPC-level storage and compute separation. Agents are authenticated with short-lived proxy tokens instead of raw API keys.

Our evaluations show that frontier AI’s cyber capabilities are advancing quickly. The length of cyber tasks frontier models can complete has been doubling every few months, and this rate has become faster over time, with recent models exceeding our previous trends. 🧵
