Anthropic talking to the Trump administration about its next AI model, co-founder says
Jack Clark said Anthropic is briefing U.S. officials on Mythos as the model faces a Pentagon blacklist over national security concerns.
- On Monday, Anthropic Co-founder Jack Clark confirmed the company is discussing its frontier AI model Mythos with the Trump administration, even after a contract dispute led the Pentagon to label Anthropic a supply-chain risk.
- The Pentagon designated Anthropic a supply-chain risk last month following disagreements over guardrails for military AI use, effectively barring defense employees and contractors from using the company's technology.
- Mythos, announced April 7, features advanced coding and autonomous capabilities; experts warn it can identify cybersecurity vulnerabilities, prompting Anthropic to grant early access to 40 major technology firms including Apple and Google to secure their systems.
- A Washington, D.C., federal appeals court declined to block the Pentagon's blacklisting of Anthropic last week, marking a legal win for the Trump administration and clarifying the Defense Department's authority to restrict the firm's access.
- Clark emphasized that despite the narrow contracting dispute, Anthropic remains committed to national security, stating, "Our position is the government has to know about this stuff," regarding current and future AI models.
