Anthropic's AI Triggers a Secret Meeting Between the FED and the U.S. Treasury
Anthropic’s AI has just triggered an unprecedented alert and caused a secret meeting between the Fed and the U.S. Treasury. At stake? Global financial stability, threatened by the destructive capabilities of its artificial intelligence models. A crisis that exposes the flaws of a system ill-prepared for the era of advanced AI.

In Brief
- The Fed and the U.S. Treasury have summoned major banks to assess the risks posed by Anthropic’s AI, capable of exploiting critical vulnerabilities.
- The leak of an advanced model revealed major vulnerabilities, causing cybersecurity stock prices to fall.
- Anthropic is investing massively in TPU chips with Google and Broadcom, while regulators accelerate discussions on strict AI regulation.
Jerome Powell and Scott Bessent Sound the Alarm: Anthropic’s AI Becomes a Systemic Threat
In April 2026, Jerome Powell (Fed) and Scott Bessent (U.S. Treasury) urgently summoned the CEOs of the largest American banks, including Citigroup, Morgan Stanley, and Goldman Sachs. The goal? To assess the risks posed by Anthropic’s Mythos AI model, capable of identifying and exploiting critical vulnerabilities in computer systems. Indeed, authorities fear that this tool could be diverted for targeted cyberattacks against financial infrastructures. A scenario that could destabilize the global economy.
While AI is often presented as a growth lever, it is now also becoming a systemic risk. In this regard, banks have been invited to strengthen their security protocols and to collaborate with regulators to anticipate threats. But the question remains. How to protect a financial system designed before the era of advanced AI?
The Leak of Anthropic’s Mythos Triggers a Cybersecurity Confidence Crisis
A few weeks before the Fed meeting, the leak of Anthropic’s advanced AI model, Mythos, exacerbated fears. Indeed, this model capable of detecting vulnerabilities in operating systems and web browsers was accidentally exposed online, revealing critical cybersecurity flaws. The consequences were immediate! Cybersecurity companies’ stock prices dropped on the stock market, also impacting BTC.
This leak demonstrated that the capabilities of Anthropic’s Mythos AI are not only theoretical but real and exploitable. Moreover, it shows that companies and governments still underestimate the risks related to AI despite warnings. Faced with these challenges, Anthropic announced a colossal investment plan of 30 billion dollars to secure its infrastructures, in collaboration with Google and Broadcom. The goal?
- Develop dedicated TPU chips;
- Reduce dependency on external suppliers;
- Strengthen the resilience of its models.
The Fed meeting and the leak of Anthropic’s Mythos model reveal that AI has become a national security issue. Between technological investments and regulation, the world must now decide… Let innovation run free, or impose safeguards to avoid an unprecedented cyber crisis.
