This was reported by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.axios.com\/2026\/04\/19\/nsa-anthropic-mythos-pentagon\">Axios<\/a>, citing sources.<\/p>\n<p>Previously, disagreements arose between Anthropic and the Pentagon due to the company&#8217;s reluctance to allow the use of AI models for mass surveillance of U.S. citizens and the development of autonomous weapons. Consequently, President Donald Trump <a href=\"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/news\/us-government-to-cease-use-of-anthropic-technologies\">instructed<\/a> all federal agencies to completely cease using the AI firm&#8217;s technologies within six months.<\/p>\n<p>In April, Anthropic <a href=\"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/news\/anthropic-restricts-public-access-to-ai-model-mythos-after-laboratory-escape\">developed<\/a> a new model, Claude Mythos, but refrained from releasing it publicly due to high security risks. During several weeks of testing, the neural network identified thousands of zero-day vulnerabilities in major operating systems and web browsers.<\/p>\n<p>Instead of a public release, the company launched Project Glasswing\u2014an initiative involving AWS, Apple, Broadcom, Cisco, CrowdStrike, Google, JPMorgan Chase, Linux Foundation, Microsoft, Nvidia, Palo Alto Networks, and others to test the tool in secure environments.<\/p>\n<p>Axios discovered that the NSA is among the undisclosed recipients of the technology. It is unknown how the agency utilizes the startup&#8217;s artificial intelligence, but others use it to scan their own environments for vulnerabilities.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cCurrently, the military is expanding the use of Anthropic&#8217;s tools while simultaneously claiming in court that their application threatens U.S. national security,\u201d the journalists noted.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Relations between Anthropic and the authorities seem to have warmed.
