qwant news | Sam Altman says OpenAI is resetting Codex usage limits “to celebrate 3M weekly codex users” and will reset them for every 1M new users until it reaches 10M Anthropic unveiled “Project Glasswing,” a new cybersecurity effort that gives a select group of partners early, controlled access to its unreleased Claude Mythos Preview model. The frontier‑class AI is designed to locate software vulnerabilities more effectively than even the most skilled human researchers, reportedly finding thousands of high‑severity bugs—including zero‑day flaws in every major operating system and web browser. Anthropic chose to restrict the model’s release because it believes the technology is powerful enough to be weaponized if made publicly available. The initiative assembles a multi‑vendor coalition that includes Amazon Web Services, Apple, Broadcom, Cisco, CrowdStrike, Google, Microsoft, NVIDIA, Palo Alto Networks, JPMorgan Chase, the Linux Foundation and others. Together, these companies will use Mythos Preview to scan critical codebases, assist open‑source maintainers, and develop safeguards that can block the model’s most dangerous outputs. Anthropic is also pledging up to $100 million in usage credits and additional funding for open‑source security projects to help offset the resource demands of the effort. Anthropic’s leadership frames Project Glasswing as a “first step” toward a broader, industry‑wide response to the emerging AI‑driven cyber threat landscape. By giving trusted defenders a head start on patching vulnerabilities, the company hopes to prevent the rapid proliferation of AI‑generated exploits while buying time to devise longer‑term safety and governance mechanisms. Executives acknowledge the high stakes: if the model is mishandled, it could give a private entity unprecedented zero‑day knowledge across the software ecosystem, making coordinated governance and transparency essential to avoid a potential security “shakedown.” Read more: https://www.techmeme.com/260408/p7 #samaltman #openai #anthropic #projectglasswing #claudemythospreview
