AI Researches: The NSA confirms Mythos “broke into almost all of our classified systems, not in weeks, but in hours,” according to testimony shared during a Senate Intelligence Committee hearing.

The Details:

  • Senator Mark Warner said NSA and Cyber Command chief General Joshua Rudd told him Mythos broke into almost all of their classified systems within hours.

  • Soon after, the U.S. government ordered Anthropic to limit Mythos 5 and Fable 5 to American users, which forced both models offline worldwide.

  • Anthropic only shared Mythos with around 200 trusted partners, and says it found thousands of software flaws, including one hidden for 27 years.

  • The shutdown also blocked close U.S. allies and overseas safety teams, showing that powerful AI models are now becoming national security tools.

 iMajor AI Developments that Happened in this week i

Meta employees are reportedly frustrated after being reassigned to train AI models instead of building products.
The shakeup follows 8,000 layoffs, affects thousands of workers, and comes as the company's AI costs are expected to reach billions of dollars.

A Chinese AI model just caught up to some of the world's best closed-source systems.
Z.ai's new GLM-5.2 is topping coding and agent benchmarks, narrowing the gap between open models and industry leaders like GPT and Claude.

Anthropic launched Artifacts for Claude Code, turning AI coding sessions into shareable web pages.
The feature lets teams share live dashboards, code changes, charts, and project updates through a private link.

Sakana AI launched Fugu, a multi-agent system designed to avoid dependence on restricted U.S. models.
It routes tasks across multiple open and closed models through one API, with Fugu Ultra claiming performance close to top restricted models.

Genesis AI just unveiled Eno, a headless robot built for real-world work.
The general-purpose robot features dual arms, adjustable height, and AI-powered reasoning designed for tasks ranging from warehouse operations to household chores.

AI Researches: Midjourney just unveiled Midjourney Medical, a new water-based ultrasound scanner that aims to create detailed 3D body maps in under a minute, with the long-term goal of making scans faster, cheaper, and easier to access.

The Details:
  • The scanner uses a shallow pool of water and a ring of around half a million tiny ultrasound sensors to send sound waves through the body from every angle.

  • Midjourney says the system can produce MRI-like 3D images at much higher speed, with the goal of scanning a full body in about 60 seconds instead of a long hospital-style appointment.

  • The prototype is being built by a small nine-person team and reportedly processes massive scan data in real time, around 17GB per second, which is pretty wild for a medical device.

  • The company is not just imagining this as hospital equipment, but more like a relaxing spa-style scan location, with plans pointing toward public sites as early as 2027.
