Anthropic's Project Glasswing has uncovered over 10,000 vulnerabilities in critical software systems, including 6,202 high or critical severity vulnerabilities, with 1,752 assessed by independent security research firms. The initiative, which involves over 50 partners, aims to improve cybersecurity by using AI to identify and patch vulnerabilities.
The company's unreleased AI model, Claude, has also raised security concerns due to its ability to autonomously analyze large codebases and identify exploitable vulnerabilities. Access to the model is currently limited to a small group of trusted partners.
In other news, the UK and Australia have agreed to work together on AI security and safety, sharing insights on AI capabilities and carrying out joint research into emerging risks. The partnership aims to develop international best practices for testing and evaluating AI systems.
Meanwhile, Uber President and COO Andrew Macdonald expressed concerns about the impact of AI on the company's operations, questioning the link between AI usage and tangible benefits. The CEO of AI startup Glean, a $7.2 billion company, is struggling to find candidates with a strong work ethic despite receiving thousands of job applications daily.
Ohio's AI Ready program has been expanded to provide in-person AI training to over 3,000 people across the state, aiming to build critical AI skills for the modern workforce. Researchers are also exploring the use of artificial intelligence to improve healthcare through wearable sensors.
