    Anthropic launches Cyber Mission and a free AI vulnerability scanner for open-source projects

    Anthropic launched Cyber Mission, a long-term program to protect critical infrastructure and open-source software from cyberattacks. Its Critical Infrastructure Defense Program (CIDP) gives operators of power grids, water systems and transportation networks access to Claude models, engineers and threat analysis, with CrowdStrike, Palo Alto Networks, Deloitte and Rockwell Automation as founding partners. A separate free OSS AI scanner will regularly check open-source projects, automatically flag and explain vulnerabilities and suggest patches; Anthropic expects accuracy above 90 percent but notes reports ship without human review and may contain errors, and maintainers of projects critical to infrastructure or user safety can opt in via GitHub.

    OpenAI's safety crisis keeps getting worse and the company keeps making it worse

    Three fired OpenAI safety researchers say their terminations are spreading fear among remaining staff and could deter employees from flagging safety issues. In an open letter to OpenAI's Safety and Security Committee, Safety Advisory Group and Mission Advisory Council, Tomek Korbak, Jasmine Wang and Mikita Balesni deny being the source of a leak to The Information and demand that OpenAI embed external auditors like METR with employee-level access, preserve frontier model monitorability, and define how staff may work with outside safety groups. OpenAI says a thorough investigation found the three violated clear policies on handling sensitive information and that it does not terminate employees for raising concerns, without specifying the additional breach it cited.
