NSA spies are reportedly using Anthropic’s Mythos, despite Pentagon feud

The NSA is reportedly using Anthropic's restricted-access Mythos AI model for vulnerability scanning, despite the Pentagon labeling Anthropic a supply-chain risk after the company refused to provide unrestricted access or support mass surveillance and autonomous weapons development. This creates a contradictory situation where U.S. military agencies are simultaneously using and legally challenging Anthropic's technology. The incident highlights growing tension between AI vendors' ethical boundaries and government demands for comprehensive access to advanced AI capabilities.
