ECB to Scrutinize Anthropic’s Mythos on Call With Executives

The European Central Bank is convening a call with the chief risk officers of eurozone lenders to discuss the potential threats from Anthropic’s new artificial intelligence model, as officials look to understand the technology’s potential to exploit vulnerabilities in financial systems.

The ECB will host a call with banks later this week to canvass them on their assessment of the risks from the Mythos model, according to people familiar with the matter. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent last week called Wall Street bosses to a meeting on the potential threats from the as-yet-unreleased product, which could herald a new era of cyber attacks.
