  "transcript": "BREAKING: The NSA's own director says Mythos broke into almost all of its classified systems in hours.\n\nPer The Economist, Senator Mark Warner, vice chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee, said General Joshua Rudd, who runs the NSA and the Pentagon's Cyber Command, told him this directly.\n\nThis came out on June 11, the same day Amazon reportedly found a separate jailbreak in Anthropic's models. Within hours, Trump ordered Anthropic to cut off foreign access to Mythos and Fable. \n\nAnthropic shut both down completely instead.\n\nNow there are two competing stories for why this actually happened.\n\nOne says the shutdown was a response to the NSA's own classified systems getting breached in hours.\n\nThe other says Anthropic is privately pushing back, calling the jailbreak minor and the shutdown an overreaction to something other AI models can already be tricked into doing.\n\nThe NSA was already using Mythos for its own cyber operations, with Anthropic engineers embedded inside the agency. The same tool the agency was actively relying on is the one its own director says broke into almost everything it owns.\n\n\n\n--- Top Comments ---\n\n\n[100 upvotes] Yeah, read it elsewhere.  It's utter bullshit.  China is probably throughout their systems if this is anywhere near true.\n\n[59 upvotes] People are missing the real strategic panic here. The NSA doesn't just play defense; their entire offensive playbook relies on stockpiling zero-days that they intentionally keep unpatched so they can deploy them when needed (think Stuxnet-level cyber weapons).\n\nIf a model like Mythos can tear through hardened, classified networks and find thousands of flaws in a matter of hours, it means any adversary with a similar model can instantly neutralize the NSA's offensive arsenal by patching those exact exploits before they can be used. \n\nGiven the conflict with Iran, that has to be the bigger concern.  \n\n[22 upvotes] Crazy stuff.
