Claude Mythos: AI Is Shaking Up Global Security

The latest model from the American company Anthropic, named Claude Mythos, marks a radical turning point in the evolution of AI. Capable of detecting computer vulnerabilities thirty years old, it forces the technology sector into a race against time to secure the internet before this "weapon" falls into the wrong hands. More than ever, the Church's call for an ethical approach to AI remains relevant.
In an interview with The Free Press on April 16, 2026, Jared Kaplan, co-founder of Anthropic, unveiled his latest creation: Claude Mythos. While the growth of computing power traditionally follows Moore's Law, Kaplan believes that AI is now progressing "perhaps ten times faster. " Mythos is not just a simple update; it represents the culmination of a general intelligence curve that is now reaching the core of our digital infrastructure.

An Unwitting Cyber-sabotage Expert
Mythos's unique characteristic lies in its unprecedented cybersecurity capabilities, a field for which it was not specifically trained. Kaplan explains that this is a "byproduct of its general intelligence. " Where its predecessors failed, Mythos excels: "It has found vulnerabilities in major web browsers and operating systems." Even more worrying, it knows how to "strategically combine" minor bugs to create massive exploitable vulnerabilities.
Faced with this disruptive power, Anthropic made the unprecedented decision to restrict its deployment. Rather than releasing it to the general public, the company launched Project Glasswing, a consortium bringing together industry giants (Apple, Google, Microsoft, Nvidia). The goal? To give "defenders" priority access to patch vulnerabilities before cybercriminals use similar tools.
The Doctrine of the "Digital Atomic Bomb"
Mythos's power is such that some observers speak of a "digital atomic bomb, " advocating for the nationalization of the technology. Jared Kaplan tempers this analogy, while acknowledging the dual nature of the tool: "We must ensure that the defenders get ahead." He compares the situation to the protocols governing nuclear energy or biotechnology, where cooperation between scientists and governments is vital to prevent malicious misuse.
The stakes are also geopolitical. When asked whether a competitor like the Chinese company DeepSeek could develop an equivalent model soon, Jared Kaplan calls for a form of shared responsibility. The risk? That less regulated, "open-source" models could end up offering these attack capabilities to any state or criminal actor.

A Future Between Progress and Vulnerability
Despite the risks, the co-founder of Anthropic, a physicist by training, remains optimistic. He sees AI as the engine of technological acceleration capable of eliminating diseases or radically transforming our living conditions within five to ten years. "Change is always difficult, sometimes frightening," he concedes, without fully grasping the dangers of unregulated AI, against which the Catholic Church has been warning for several years: "How can we guarantee that the development of artificial intelligence truly serves the common good and is not used solely to concentrate wealth and power?" Pope Leo XIV warned on December 5, 2025.
He added: "The Church offers everyone the treasure of its social teaching in response to a new industrial revolution and developments in the field of artificial intelligence that pose new challenges."
