Before the public preview of Anthropic's AI model, Mythos, the US government expressed concerns about its security implications. Vice President JD Vance and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent convened a private call with prominent tech CEOs, including Dario Amodei of Anthropic, Sam Altman of OpenAI, Sundar Pichai of Google, and Satya Nadella of Microsoft. The discussion focused on the security posture of large language models (LLMs) and the potential for AI to shift the balance of power in cybersecurity. Anthropic's assessment of Mythos prompted the company to limit its release to about 40 major tech firms, including Apple and Nvidia. The meeting follows a broader trend of urgent discussions among US financial leaders and highlights the significant market impact of AI developments, with previous releases causing a $2 trillion selloff in enterprise software stocks, a phenomenon dubbed the 'SaaSpocalypse.'
