Bessent on meeting with major U.S. banks about Anthropic’s Mythos AI cyber threat
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent on Wednesday said at CNBC’s #InvestInAmericaForum that he and Fed Chair Jerome Powell met with major U.S. bank CEOs this month to discuss the possible cyber risks raised by Anthropic’s Mythos model.
“Some banks are doing a better job in cybersecurity than others and we wanted to have the ability to convene them and talk about what is best practices and where they should be heading,” Bessent told CNBC’s Sara Eisen.
