MacOS security defeated by a small team in one week using Mythos

A team of researchers used AI to compromise MacOS in an attack that defeats Apple's most powerful hardware security system, which previously blocked all other known attacks.

Many security experts consider Apple devices the world's most secure consumer platform, but the researchers used Mythos, Anthropic's most powerful generative model, to crack MacOS.
 
much as I absolutely LOVE to join any kind of Apple hate train ... the more you care to read about Mythos the more you realise it is right there in the name: a f-ing myth

throw infinite tokens and enough time at any reasonably capable model and see the same outcome, the mythos hype is pure marketing
