Anthropic Briefed Trump White House on Dangerous Mythos Model
Anthropic co-founder Jack Clark confirmed the company briefed the Trump administration on its new Mythos AI model, which is too dangerous to release publicly due to its powerful cybersecurity capabilities. This comes despite Anthropic suing Trump's Department of Defense after it labeled the company a supply-chain risk over disputes about military AI use.
Clark downplayed the lawsuit as a narrow contracting dispute, saying national security cooperation remains a priority. He also pushed back slightly on CEO Dario Amodei's Depression-era unemployment warnings, noting the company currently sees only limited job market impacts, primarily in early graduate employment in select industries.
