Anthropic is reportedly testing a new, highly capable AI model internally codenamed Claude Mythos, also referred to as Capybara. This development follows a data leak where draft documents detailing the model's existence and purported capabilities were inadvertently made public. The leaked materials suggest Mythos significantly outperforms Anthropic's current top-tier model, Claude Opus 4.6, particularly in areas like coding, reasoning, and cybersecurity, though exact benchmark scores and release details remain unconfirmed.
