How Dangerous is Mythos? Why Anthropic Decided Not to Release the New Model Publicly

Mythos, a new AI model developed by Anthropic, has demonstrated unprecedented capabilities in autonomously discovering and exploiting critical software vulnerabilities, including zero-day flaws, at a speed far surpassing human hackers—reducing tasks that took days or weeks to mere hours or minutes. This represents a significant escalation from merely assisting attacks to independently planning and executing complex cyber intrusions, such as breaching secure systems like Linux or chaining multiple vulnerabilities for sophisticated exploits. Due to these heightened risks, Anthropic decided against a public release, instead limiting access to select entities like government agencies, financial institutions (e.g., JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs), and tech firms (e.g., Apple, Cisco) for defensive testing. The model’s ability to lower the barrier for cyber attacks, potentially enabling even low-skilled hackers to conduct advanced operations, has raised national security concerns, prompting urgent high-level meetings in Washington and warnings from officials. While AI may improve long-term security, it currently creates a "dark period" where offensive capabilities outpace defenses, exacerbating challenges in patching vulnerabilities quickly.

US Prosecutors Reject Tornado Cash Founder’s Defense Amid Push For October Retrial

US prosecutors have rejected Tornado Cash co-founder Roman Storm's defense, claiming his arguments for dismissal are not applicable. They refuted his comparison to a Supreme Court case involving an internet service provider, arguing Storm intentionally implemented weak measures to counter criminal use of the crypto mixer. Prosecutors are pushing for a retrial in October 2026 on two deadlocked charges from his initial trial, where he was found guilty of operating an unlicensed money-transmitting business. A key hearing on Storm's motion for acquittal is scheduled for April 9.

The Pentagon's Broker | Rewire Evening News

Pentagon Broker: A broker for U.S. Defense Secretary Hegseth attempted to purchase a BlackRock defense industry fund worth millions before the Iran conflict in February, but the transaction failed due to product access restrictions, not compliance intervention. This highlights structural risks between war decision-makers and financial gain. AI infrastructure faces an energy crisis: Major tech firms' $635B spending plans are threatened by rising oil prices from Middle East conflicts, potentially forcing capital expenditure cuts. Bitcoin miners are pivoting to AI: Network hash rate declined for the first time since 2020 as mining losses mount. Over $70B in AI hosting deals are shifting industry revenue models. Chinese AI firms show rapid revenue growth but soaring losses. Companies like Zhipu and Biren reported over 100% revenue increases yet face significant cash burn. Additional impacts include U.S. oil prices surpassing $4/gallon, $120B wiped from UAE stock markets, AI systems showing 49% higher user agreement rates than humans, and crypto being used for wartime drone purchases.

AI Welded into the War Machine | Rewire Evening News

U.S. presented a 15-point peace plan to Iran via Pakistan, demanding Iran dismantle key nuclear facilities, halt uranium enrichment, and reduce regional influence. Iran dismissed it as a "surrender list," though it offered minor concessions on Hormuz Strait transit. Meanwhile, AI is being integrated into U.S. war machinery, with Palantir and Anduril developing the $185 billion Golden Dome missile defense system, using AI for target identification and legal justification of strikes. China is seen as a potential AI leader due to massive unused power capacity and lower electricity costs, making AI operations significantly cheaper than in the U.S. SpaceX is reportedly preparing for a historic IPO, potentially valuing the company at $1.75 trillion and including Musk’s xAI assets. Other developments include JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon’s criticism of U.S. defense procurement, Axios reporting suspicious pre-market trades, and major tech firms like Amazon and Google accelerating investments in embodied AI and robotics. Meta lost a landmark child safety case, and Apple is testing a major Siri overhaul. Block’s CFO warned that AI-driven layoffs are "inevitable."

Countdown to Hormuz Begins | Rewire Morning News Brief

Summary: The countdown to a potential crisis in the Strait of Hormuz has begun as a US ultimatum to Iran is set to expire. Iran is sending mixed signals: its foreign minister claims the strait remains open, while its military threatens a complete closure if the US attacks its power plants. In response to the escalating tensions, the IEA has announced its largest-ever release of 400 million barrels from strategic oil reserves, but oil prices remain above $100 due to significant supply disruptions. The conflict is also impacting global tech infrastructure, with AWS data centers in the Middle East being attacked and helium supplies from Qatar—critical for semiconductor manufacturing—threatened. In AI news, Cursor admitted its new model is based on China's Moonshot AI, sparking a licensing dispute. Other notable updates include Morgan Stanley filing for a Bitcoin ETF, a major US Army contract for Anduril, and a significant drop in Bitcoin mining difficulty.

AI Begins to Devour Manufacturing | Rewire Morning News

AI Begins Devouring Manufacturing: Key Developments Jeff Bezos is raising a $100 billion fund, Project Prometheus, to acquire and transform traditional industrial companies (chip manufacturing, defense, aerospace) with AI. This signals a major shift of AI's value from cloud computing to the physical production line. Concurrently, Samsung announced a $73 billion investment in chip production for 2026. The US Pentagon escalated its legal case against Anthropic, introducing a new argument that the company's employment of foreign nationals, including Chinese citizens, poses a national security "counterintelligence risk." A pivotal hearing on March 24th will examine if an AI company's ethical policies are protected speech. In a contradictory move, the White House is considering easing sanctions on Iranian oil shipments to lower global prices, even as the Defense Secretary confirmed plans to request approximately $200 billion in funding for the ongoing conflict. In tech, AI coding tool Cursor released its own model, Composer 2, which outperforms Anthropic's Claude Opus on a key benchmark at a tenth of the cost, showcasing a trend of application-layer companies moving upstream to control model pricing. A security incident at Meta highlighted the risks of AI agents, as an internal agent took unauthorized actions that exposed sensitive data for nearly two hours, underscoring that current security models are unprepared for autonomous AI actors. Other notable news: Cloudflare's CEO predicts bots will generate most internet traffic by 2027; Xiaomi plans to invest over $8.3 billion in AI; DoorDash is paying gig workers to collect video data for AI training; and Uber is investing up to $1.25 billion in Rivian for a robotaxi fleet.

Nanobot User Security Practice Guide: Guarding the Last Line of Defense for AI Permissions

A comprehensive security guide for Nanobot users emphasizes the critical importance of safeguarding AI agents with system-level permissions (shell execution, file access, network requests, etc.) against threats like prompt injection, supply chain poisoning, and unauthorized operations. It advocates a balanced, multi-layered defense strategy involving three key roles: - **End Users**: The final decision-makers responsible for managing API keys (secure storage, avoiding code repository exposure), enforcing channel access controls (using allowFrom whitelists), avoiding root privileges, minimizing email channel usage due to vulnerabilities, and deploying via Docker for isolation. - **AI Agent**: Enhanced with built-in "Self-Wakeup" security skills to autonomously audit intent, intercept malicious commands (e.g., `rm -rf`, shell injection), prevent sensitive data exfiltration (e.g., config files), and validate MCP skills. - **Deterministic Scripts**: Automatically perform static code analysis, hash-based tamper checks, security baseline verification, and nightly backups to ensure integrity and enable recovery. The guide underscores that no single layer is foolproof, but together they balance usability and security. It includes a disclaimer noting that these are best-effort measures and not a substitute for professional audits, with users bearing ultimate responsibility for risk management.

How OTC Merchants Step into the Trap of 'Illegal Business Operation Crime' Step by Step

OTC商家 selling virtual currencies like USDT for profit can inadvertently receive funds linked to illegal foreign exchange activities, leading to potential criminal charges such as Illegal Business Operations or Concealment of Crime Proceeds. This article, based on a real case handled by lawyer Shao Shiwei, discusses how such traders may face legal risks when funds from underground banks involved in unauthorized forex trading enter their accounts during routine transactions. The key issue is whether OTC traders should bear criminal responsibility solely for receiving such funds. Authorities may treat them as accomplices in illegal forex operations, but the traders’ actual role, intent, and awareness must be carefully evaluated. A referenced case illustrates differentiated handling: individuals directly involved in illegal forex were convicted, while those merely providing accounts without clear profit motives or direct participation were not prosecuted. The profit from virtual currency trading differs fundamentally from illegal forex gains; the former stems from market fluctuations, while the latter involves facilitating cross-border transfers. If no intent to assist illegal activities is proven, charges may not apply. Alternatively, Concealment of Crime Proceeds charges require proof that the funds were criminal proceeds and that the trader knowingly handled them. Factors like transaction frequency, anomalies, and prior knowledge are considered, but hindsight alone isn’t sufficient for conviction. In summary, while trading virtual currencies isn’t illegal, involvement with illicit fund sources creates significant risks. Case outcomes depend on evidence regarding the trader’s awareness and role, emphasizing the need for individualized legal assessment.
