The Indian government is actively negotiating with the US administration to secure \u201cequitable\u201d access to Anthropic\u2019s recently unveiled Mythos AI model for Indian companies.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

According to a report by The Economic Times<\/i>, the Centre is currently \u201clooking for mechanisms\u201d and working out the \u201clogistics\u201d for Indian companies to access the model to ensure that the country’s critical infrastructure is not left vulnerable.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

What is Mythos? Why does India want access to Anthropic’s latest AI?<\/h2>\n

Mythos is the latest AI model<\/a> from Anthropic, unveiled earlier this month but not released to the public due to cybersecurity risks.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

In its release announcement, Anthropic said that its latest model is so capable of finding and exploiting software vulnerabilities that it could be used for activities that could have an adverse impact on economies, public safety, and national security.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Instead of releasing the model to the public, Anthropic launched a new initiative called Project Glasswing, under which it granted access to the model to around 40 organisations, including Apple, Broadcom, Cisco, CrowdStrike, Google<\/a>, JPMorgan Chase, the Linux Foundation, Microsoft, and others.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

What is India doing to gain access to Mythos?<\/h2>\n

Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, speaking recently at an ET <\/i>event, confirmed that the Ministry of Electronics is in talks with the US administration, Anthropic, and vendors testing the new model.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cThey are engaging with the US administration, Anthropic and with the vendors who have been given a chance to test (Mythos<\/a>),\u201d Sitharaman said at the event. \u201cThe cyber challenge we have because of the Mythos is going to be a big one….”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Notably, the government also held meetings with banks and key cyber agencies last week to assess the risks posed by the Mythos AI model. Sitharaman had asked banks to strengthen their defences and monitoring capabilities by engaging cybersecurity agencies and professionals.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
