- Anthropic hosted briefing sessions for federal chief information officers on May 7 and 8 to discuss defending digital assets against cyber threats, focusing on advanced AI models like Mythos Preview.
- Other government branches have been briefed on Mythos’s software vulnerability detection capabilities.
- Anthropic announced the expansion of Project Glasswing, initially offering access to Mythos Preview to private sector partners, to include around 150 new participants.
- New Project Glasswing participants come from diverse sectors including power, water, healthcare, communications, and hardware.
- The Pentagon labeled Anthropic a supply chain risk, leading to President Trump’s order to halt the use of Anthropic products; this designation is currently being contested in court by Anthropic.
- Trump signed a scaled-down executive order on AI, implementing lesser federal oversight on advanced models after postponing the original order due to concerns it could hinder innovation.
