AI Agents Show They Can Create Exploits, Not Just Find Vulns
The UK AI Security Institute found it could complete a 32-step simulated network attack in about 20 hours, while Anthropic limits access to selected partners.
Sure, AI agents such as Mythos can find security vulnerabilities in software, but the bigger question is whether they can turn those flaws into functional exploits that work in the real world. After all, many AI-discovered bugs prove minor or difficult to weaponize. New research, however, suggests frontier models can indeed develop working exploits when directed to do so. To better understand the rapidly changing security landscape, computer sci…
