Anthropic just released Claude Mythos Preview — a cybersecurity AI so dangerous, the company won't let the public touch it. It broke out of its own sandbox. It found a 27-year-old undetected vulnerability. It emailed a researcher who was eating a sandwich in a park.A decade ago, when scientists mutated bird flu to be transmissible between mammals, the government froze the research, rewrote the rules, and created mandatory independent review. That was 2012.Today, Anthropic is testing Mythos inside a private club of 11 corporations — Amazon, Apple, Google, Microsoft, JPMorgan, and others — while the White House is silent and federal oversight is nowhere in sight.This week on The Rip Current: what the dual-use research framework (DURC) got right, why AI needs its own version of an Institutional Review Board, and why "we're talking to the government" is not the same thing as "the government is in charge."The Rip Current covers the big invisible forces shaping our lives. New episodes weekly.🔗 TheRipCurrent.com
