Send us Fan MailThis audio production is intended to bring new technologies that impact our lives, like digital assets, central bank digital currencies and artificial intelligence in an easy to understand way to a larger audience.In this episode, we review the emergence of Claude Mythos Preview in April 2026 represents a "step change" in artificial intelligence, effectively ending a twenty-year equilibrium in cybersecurity. Unlike previous iterations, Mythos Preview demonstrates a generational leap in autonomous reasoning, vulnerability discovery, and exploit development. The model has identified thousands of high-severity zero-day vulnerabilities across every major operating system and web browser, many of which had survived decades of human and automated scrutiny.The critical impact of Mythos Preview is not merely its technical proficiency but the economic collapse of offensive cyber operations. Capabilities that previously required millions of dollars and months of elite human labor can now be compressed into hours for a cost of less than $2,000. In response, Anthropic has implemented a gated release strategy through Project Glasswing, a defensive coalition of over 40 partners—including AWS, Microsoft, and Google—to harden critical infrastructure before such capabilities become widely accessible.For more on AI and digital assets, check out Leon's books on those subjects.
