Anthropic Launches Project Glasswing with $100M Commitment
Anthropic announced Project Glasswing, a new initiative the company says brings together Amazon Web Services (AMZN), Anthropic, Apple (AAPL), Broadcom (AVGO), Cisco (CSCO), CrowdStrike (CRWD), Google (GOOGL), JPMorganChase (JPM), the Linux Foundation, Microsoft (MSFT), Nvidia (NVDA), and Palo Alto Networks (PANW) "in an effort to secure the world's most critical software." "We formed Project Glasswing because of capabilities we've observed in a new frontier model trained by Anthropic that we believe could reshape cybersecurity. Claude Mythos Preview is a general-purpose, unreleased frontier model that reveals a stark fact: AI models have reached a level of coding capability where they can surpass all but the most skilled humans at finding and exploiting software vulnerabilities. Mythos Preview has already found thousands of high-severity vulnerabilities, including some in every major operating system and web browser. Given the rate of AI progress, it will not be long before such capabilities proliferate, potentially beyond actors who are committed to deploying them safely. The fallout for economies, public safety, and national security could be severe. Project Glasswing is an urgent attempt to put these capabilities to work for defensive purposes," Anthropic explained. As part of Project Glasswing, the launch partners listed above will use Mythos Preview as part of their defensive security work. Anthropic is committing up to $100M in usage credits for Mythos Preview across these efforts, as well as $4M in direct donations to open-source security organizations.
