  "account": "The European Union has recently gained access to Anthropic's most powerful AI model, known as Mythos 5, after a wait of over three months. This came after a period of \"constructive engagement\" between the EU and Anthropic, according to Thomas Regnier, the European Commission's spokesperson for tech sovereignty. The advanced model, which can rapidly identify and exploit cyber vulnerabilities, was initially restricted due to its hacking capabilities. Anthropic had limited access to the model to a select number of partners through Project Glasswing, initially involving around 50 organizations. This number expanded to approximately 200 partners, including Anthropic's own employees within the US, by June. However, the US government later placed export control measures that barred access to non-American users, including non-US Anthropic employees. This prompted the EU to question the discriminatory nature of the restriction. Despite these challenges, Brussels persisted in its request for access, which was finally granted. ENISA, the EU's cybersecurity agency, is currently testing Mythos 5. The EU's regulatory powers under the AI Act may make tech companies leery of sharing information that could later be used in infringement proceedings. ENISA has previously accessed OpenAI's GPT-5.6-Cyber and the latest OpenAI model, GPT-6 Astra.",
