Odaily Planet Daily News - Anthropic has recently been revealed to be testing a new AI model named “Mythos,” which is described as “bringing unprecedented cybersecurity risks.” This has a direct impact on the cryptocurrency industry, as AI capabilities improve, its role in smart contract auditing, vulnerability discovery, and attack automation will further amplify, potentially intensifying the DeFi attack and defense game. Recent events, including Ripple launching AI security upgrades, the Ethereum Foundation’s focus on quantum-resistant security, and Resolv’s stablecoin losing its peg due to contract vulnerabilities, all highlight the importance of security issues. It is reported that the Mythos model is currently only available for testing to early access clients, and due to high costs and sensitive capabilities, it is not yet ready for a full release.
