Anthropic's Claude Mythos Preview has demonstrated an advanced capability in discovering cryptographic weaknesses. Researchers utilized the model to identify vulnerabilities in both the HAWK digital signature scheme and a reduced version of the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). While these findings do not impact current production systems, they highlight the potential for powerful AI models to stress-test and improve the security of cryptographic algorithms. AI
