Blue House Discusses Antropic's Mitosis Open-Close Model with U.S. Authorities

South Korean President's Policy Chief Kim Yong-Bum revealed close coordination with Antropic on cybersecurity issues following the San Francisco AI Summit. Kim emphasized that Antropic views both open and closed models as necessary, seeking to persuade U.S. authorities. The Mitosis model, a next-generation high-performance AI developed by Antropic, possesses 'AI hacker' capabilities to identify system vulnerabilities and issue attack commands, fueling concerns about cyber threats. South Korea's government actively pursued project Glasswing, with Samsung, SK Hynix, SK Telecom, and KISA securing access to Mitosis, though U.S. export controls have temporarily blocked access.
