Getting access to Mythos high on priority but other AI models also being utilised: IT Secy

Getting access to Mythos and other advanced frontier models is high on the government’s priority, and while talks and processes for the same are on, alternate AI models are also being leveraged for now to track and fix vulnerabilities, IT Secretary S Krishnan said on Monday.

Mythos – an advanced AI model developed by Anthropic – has been able to “lay bare” vulnerabilities that existed in the original code of widely-used software programmes but were often left unresolved because they were considered low priority, too costly to fix, or had simply gone undetected, he noted.
