Anthropic Invites EU To Access Mythos
An anonymous reader quotes a report from Politico: Anthropic has extended an invitation to the European Commission granting the EU's cyber agency access to its powerful AI hacking tool Mythos, according to a Commission official familiar with the process. The AI firm made the formal invitation after a meeting with the Commission in San Francisco last Thursday, the official said, adding the EU now has to put in place a mechanism to access the model with proper security safeguards.
European Commission spokesperson Thomas Regnier said in a statement the Commission has had "several productive meetings with Anthropic" and "welcome[d] the latest developments on potential future access." [...] "This latest development is of utmost importance to get a clear picture on the potential risks," Regnier said, adding: "Let's not forget that Mythos is not one off, a new wave of powerful models are coming to the market." An ENISA official said the agency does not have active access now but is working to implement it. The Commission is working on a formal action plan to respond to powerful AI hacking tools. It has indicated it wants to release it before the summer break, according to an industry official. Anthropic's Mythos was unveiled in early April and triggered fears that it could enable large-scale attacks with its ability to find and exploit vulnerabilities. "European authorities for weeks were shut off from accessing the cutting-edge cybersecurity AI tech, leading to urgent calls by European politicians and government officials to gain access," notes Politico. "Cyber officials also called for Europe to build its own version."

United Airlines Flight To Spain Pulls U-Turn Over Bluetooth Device Name
Tony Isaac shares a report from NPR: A United Airlines flight traveling from Newark, New Jersey, to Palma de Mallorca, Spain, was forced to make a U-turn and return to Newark after more than four hours in the air due to a security concern. According to passenger reports and air traffic control audio, the disruption was caused by a personal Bluetooth speaker -- reportedly belonging to a teenager -- that had been named "BOMB." Upon returning to Newark, passengers were evacuated so that security details could inspect the entire aircraft and cargo area. The flight was ultimately cleared, reboarded, and arrived at its destination in Spain approximately nine and a half hours behind schedule. Multiple posts on social media from self-identified passengers indicate that the problem was a Bluetooth device on board the plane. One post referenced in-flight announcements with "lots of comments like 'this little joke is ruining it for everyone.'"
Audio from air traffic control sheds a little more light on the situation: "There's a security detail out there, someone had a Bluetooth speaker and they named it a certain four-letter word," another voice responded. "So they have to inspect the whole aircraft including the cargo area [and] passengers have to evacuate."
