White House and Anthropic CEO discuss working together amid rising fear about Mythos model
The talks focused on collaboration, guardrails and the risks of Mythos, which Anthropic says can find software vulnerabilities faster than human experts.
- On Friday, White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent met with Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei to discuss AI collaboration, signaling a potential reset in the administration's tense relationship with the firm.
- Tensions escalated earlier this year when the Pentagon labeled Anthropic a "supply chain risk" after the company refused to remove guardrails preventing its AI from being used for autonomous weapons and mass surveillance.
- Government officials recently sought access to Anthropic's new "Mythos" model, which researchers say is "strikingly capable at computer security tasks," to help agencies identify vulnerabilities in critical software and networks.
- Both the White House and Anthropic described the meeting as "productive" and "constructive," with discussions focusing on shared priorities including cybersecurity and the balance between advancing innovation and ensuring safety.
- President Donald Trump appeared unaware of the visit, telling reporters in Arizona he had "no idea," even as the administration works to forge a compromise that could restore the company's technology to government use.
