Añadido: 2026-05-05

[00:00:00]Just days before OpenAI's announcement, Anthropic revealed its own cybersecurity-focused AI model, Mythos.

[00:00:06]And Mythos immediately raised eyebrows across the industry. Not just because of its capabilities, because of what those capabilities implied.

[00:00:15]Reports suggest that Mythos is exceptionally strong at identifying and even exploiting vulnerabilities across major software systems.

[00:00:22]And that has triggered concern amongst financial institutions, regulators, and security experts.

[00:00:28]In fact, warnings have already been issued at the highest levels.

[00:00:32]There have been discussions involving major financial authorities about the potential risks of such powerful models being misused.

[00:00:39]So, what we're seeing here is not just product innovation. It's a strategic response.

[00:00:44]OpenAI's positioning GPT-5.4 Cyber as the defensive counterpart to what many perceive as the more offensive capability system from Anthropic.

[00:00:54]And this highlights a fascinating divergence in strategy between the two companies.
