On October 6, a leader expressed concern that AI models with high cyber attack capabilities are increasingly spreading. The statement emphasized the urgent need for a response due to a series of data leak incidents. The remarks were posted on the leader's social media account.
The leader referenced the AI model "Claude Mythos" developed by Anthropic, explaining that during an April parliamentary session, he stated that it could take only a few months for models with attack capabilities comparable to Mythos to proliferate. He evaluated the performance of the open AI model "GLM-5.3," released by the Chinese company Z.ai in August, as being "almost on par with Mythos," acknowledging that his earlier warnings have now become a reality.
Security experts have noted the troubling trend of increasing data breaches, suggesting that the rapid advancement of AI technologies may contribute to these vulnerabilities. They argue that ignoring the potential misuse of such technologies is becoming increasingly difficult.
The urgency for enhanced security measures is underscored by the growing frequency of cyber attacks, with experts calling for immediate action to mitigate these risks. As AI development continues to evolve rapidly, the need for robust defenses against potential threats has never been more critical.
