Markus Kasanmascheff
An everything bagel for the brain. Substantive, layered, well-seasoned.
Summary
Anthropic expanded its Project Glasswing cybersecurity program to ~150 organizations across 15+ countries on June 2. Separately, a Financial Times report alleges the NSA is using Anthropic's Mythos AI model for offensive cyber operations, with roughly half a dozen Anthropic engineers embedded inside the agency. Neither Anthropic nor the NSA have publicly confirmed the arrangement, which raises questions about embedded engineer roles, classified target approval, and Pentagon access.
