## Resource

Anthropic has launched Project Glasswing, a massive security initiative using the new Claude Mythos Preview model to identify and patch global software vulnerabilities. The company is providing $100 million in compute credits to major tech partners to secure critical infrastructure before the model's public release.

## Highlights
- Main idea: Anthropic is using its most powerful model, Claude Mythos, to proactively hunt for code vulnerabilities in first-party and open-source software
- Practical takeaway: Major tech players like Microsoft, Apple, and Amazon are participating in a coordinated effort to patch systems using Anthropic's compute credits
- Failure mode: The sheer capability of these models could create an existential cybersecurity crisis if vulnerabilities are discovered by bad actors before they are patched
- Business strategy: Anthropic is pivoting toward high-value enterprise use cases, evidenced by their revenue run rate jumping from $9 billion to $30 billion in months
- Technical insight: The upcoming 'Capybara' model is expected to significantly outperform Claude Opus in agentic coding and complex reasoning tasks
