provide its latest artificial intelligence model&#8211;with enhanced cybersecurity capabilities and performance comparable to Claude Mythos&#8211;to some Japanese companies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Jason Kwon, chief strategy officer of the major AI development firm OpenAI, revealed the plan in an interview with The Asahi Shimbun in Tokyo.<\/p>\n<p>Anthropic, a U.S. startup, unveiled its new Claude Mythos model last month, which is known for its exceptionally advanced capability to identify and exploit system vulnerabilities.<\/p>\n<p>Since then, there has been growing global concern over guarding against potential misuse of such advanced AI technologies.<\/p>\n<p>OpenAI\u2019s latest model is said to offer performance comparable to Mythos, and Japanese companies receiving it could potentially expand their range of defensive cybersecurity capabilities.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Kwon said his company intends to provide \u201cGPT\u20115.5\u2011Cyber,\u201d a model specialized in cyberdefense, which OpenAI announced earlier this month, in response to Mythos.<\/p>\n<p>GPT-5.5-Cyber has already been provided to government agencies and some companies in the United States.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re trying to broaden access to Japan and other allies,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Last month, the British government\u2019s AI Security Institute (AISI) found that GPT-5.5 had reached a performance level comparable to Mythos.<\/p>\n<p>In a report released this month, AISI said that both models successfully cleared all tasks in simulated cyberattack trials.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Kwon said that Mythos \u201cdrew a lot of attention\u201d from the media.<\/p>\n<p>However, he added, \u201cThe progress of cyber capabilities actually has been continuous and there was not a single moment when things became very different,\u201d expressing skepticism toward the belief that Mythos alone represented a sudden leap in performance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>AVOIDING LOSS OF CONTROL<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Kwon also mentioned the roles of U.S. and Chinese companies leading AI development.<\/p>\n<p>In 2023, then U.S. President Joe&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a
