Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei met White House officials including Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Chief of Staff Susie Wiles on Friday, marking the first high-level contact since the Pentagon placed a supply-chain risk designation on the company earlier this year. The meeting centred on cybersecurity, AI safety, and America's position in the global AI race — all triggered by Mythos, Anthropic's most powerful model yet, which experts warn could dramatically lower the barrier for sophisticated cyberattacks. Both sides called it productive. The Pentagon designation remains. The lawsuit stands. Nothing is resolved.
