Anthropic's Dario Amodei to meet with White House about Mythos

TL;DR

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei will meet with White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles on Friday.
The meeting concerns Anthropic's new AI model, Mythos, designed for cybersecurity and identifying software flaws.
This engagement indicates a potential de-escalation after President Trump previously blacklisted Anthropic and called it a national security risk.
Anthropic had sued the government to reverse the blacklisting, stemming from disagreements over the Department of Defense's desired access to its AI models.
The DOD's concerns involved potential use for autonomous weapons or domestic mass surveillance, while Anthropic sought assurances.
Despite previous disputes, the DOD has reportedly continued using Anthropic's Claude models in the war with Iran.
Other high-level meetings regarding AI cybersecurity have recently occurred, including with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell.
Susie Wiles has ties to the Trump administration through her previous work at lobbying firm Ballard Partners, which Anthropic hired after the DOD designation.
Mythos is being rolled out to select companies under Project Glasswing and will not be publicly released.
