Defense & Aerospace Technology Report [Jun 23, 26] Jim Lewis & Mark Montgomery

On today’s Technology Report program, Dr. Jim Lewis of the Center for European Policy Analysis and retired US Navy Rear Adm. Mark Montgomery of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies and a Cyberspace Solarium Commission senior adviser join Defense & Aerospace Report Editor Vago Muradian to discuss the implications of Senate Intelligence Committee Ranking Member Sen Mark Warner’s claim that Gen Josh Rudd, the director of the National Security Agency, told him that Anthropic’s Mythos AI model was able to breach “almost all’ classified systems in hours; how the administration should prepare a new era of cyber and data vulnerability in the wake of the debut of ever more powerful AI models; how soon before another model debuts that’s more powerful than Anthropic’s; gauging America’s lead over China’s AI capabilities; whether spending more is the only way to develop breakthrough AI products; and why AI isn’t just a financial bubble waiting to burst.
