    The Daily Tech Brief | Anthropic’s Mythos AI autonomously uncovers zero-day flaws missed for 27 years

    https://www.thedailyworldbrief.com. Today’s briefing focuses on a significant advancement in cybersecurity led by Anthropic’s Mythos AI, which autonomously uncovered thousands of zero-day vulnerabilities that had existed for nearly 27 years without detection. This finding exposes critical limitations in traditional human-led security reviews and highlights the emerging role of AI in identifying complex security threats. The autonomous detection by Mythos points to the need for new security protocols and AI-integrated playbooks for vulnerability management. While the precise methods used by Mythos and the timelines for addressing the vulnerabilities remain unspecified, this development could reshape cybersecurity strategies, regulatory expectations, and enterprise risk management. Other key stories include OpenAI's launch of a new $100 ChatGPT Pro plan that increases coding capacity by five times, Google’s rollout of Device Bound Session Credentials in Chrome 146 for Windows to prevent session hijacking, and a record revenue surge at TSMC driven by AI chip demand. We also cover regulatory scrutiny of OpenAI in Florida and a significant AI investment led by Alibaba. Poll Question: Will OpenAI's $100 ChatGPT Pro plan change the AI coding tools market?
