Trump summons banking chiefs for a closed-door meeting about an AI model: report


Bank executives have been summoned by President Donald Trump for a meeting about an artificial intelligence model that its makers are worried will breach national defense firewalls.

Earlier this week, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell convened the session at Treasury Headquarters to address the model called Mythos, according to the Daily Mail.

Bloomberg reported that the meeting was classified as “systematically important” but it was short notice.

Those in attendance included Ted Pick from Morgan Stanley, David Solomon from Goldman Sachs and Jane Fraser from Citigroup.

So far only 40 firms have access to Mythos.

When testing was taking place, Anthropic said Mythos found “thousands of high–severity vulnerabilities, including some in every major operating system and web browser.”

Some of the security concerns reportedly went unnoticed by researchers and hackers.

“AI models have reached a level of coding capability where they can surpass all but the most skilled humans at finding and exploiting software vulnerabilities,” Anthropic said in a blog post.
