SYDNEY, April 23 (Reuters) - Australia is working with software providers including Anthropic over potential cybersecurity vulnerabilities, a spokesperson for Home Affairs minister Tony Burke said on Thursday, following the firm's release of its Mythos AI model that has caused concern in several countries.
Designed for defensive cybersecurity tasks, Mythos' vast capabilities have sparked fears about the threat to traditional software security, after Anthropic said a preview had uncovered "thousands" of major vulnerabilities in "every major operating system and web browser".
