Anthropic’s Restraint Is a Terrifying Warning Sign

[twkrimm]

I am wondering if D code safety could make it the prominent 
programming language in the future.

If this article is not click bait, then its message is quite 
concerning.

The good news is that Anthropic discovered in the process of 
developing Claude Mythos that the A.I. could not only write 
software code more easily and with greater complexity than any 
model currently available, but as a byproduct of that capability, 
it could also find vulnerabilities in virtually all of the 
world’s most popular software systems more easily than before.

The bad news is that if this tool falls into the hands of bad 
actors, they could hack pretty much every major software system 
in the world, including all those made by the companies in the 
consortium.

This is not a publicity stunt. In the run-up to this 
announcement, representatives of leading tech companies have been 
in private conversation with the Trump administration about the 
implications for the security of the United States and all the 
other countries that use these now vulnerable software systems, 
technologists involved told me.

For good reason. As Anthropic said in its written statement on 
Tuesday, in just the past month, “Mythos Preview has already 
found thousands of high-severity vulnerabilities, including some 
in every major operating system and web browser. Given the rate 
of A.I. progress, it will not be long before such capabilities 
proliferate, potentially beyond actors who committed to deploying 
them safely. The fallout — economics, public safety and national 
security — could be severe.
