Quick Notes
Anthropic, the company behind Claude, built an AI model called Claude Mythos Preview.
It's allegedly their most powerful model ever. And they've decided not to release it to the public at this point.
Why?
Because Mythos is so good at finding cybersecurity vulnerabilities that it can autonomously discover, exploit, and chain together zero-day flaws across every major operating system and web browser.

The ones showing up in LLMs convert 3× better than Google
They optimized for LLMs, not just Google.
FAQs. Comparison pages. Transparent pricing. LinkedIn presence. These aren't vanity plays. They're what gets you cited in ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude when your buyers are researching, your investors are looking, and your future hires are deciding where to work.

Deeper Dive
PROJECT GLASSWING
Instead of releasing Mythos publicly, Anthropic launched Project Glasswing,
This is a cybersecurity initiative that gives over 50 of the world's biggest tech organisations access to the model for defensive purposes.
The founding partners read like a who's who of tech: Amazon Web Services, Apple, Broadcom, Cisco, CrowdStrike, Google, JPMorgan Chase, the Linux Foundation, Microsoft, NVIDIA, and Palo Alto Networks. Anthropic is backing it with $100 million in usage credits plus $4 million in direct donations to open-source security organisations.
Anthropic's position is clear: deploy this defensively first, build safeguards, then consider broader access. It's the most concrete example we've seen of an AI company voluntarily restricting its own product because the capability outpaced the safety infrastructure.
PERSONAL UPDATE
I have spent 2026 traveling like crazy. Most for events, but some for personal challenges that I am going through.
This is a year of absolute change for me. After the redundancy last year, my life was left very abruptly in the US, and I decided in 2026 to open my own company around content creation and AI education.
As of the first 3 months of the year, I have managed to break-even with finances coming in, and out due to travel and other costs.
This is mind-blowing for me, especially after leaving a 9 year corporate career behind me that took me to Switzerland, the UK and the USA. It’s possible to build things, but it is absolutely terrifying and I am going to see how far I can push this.
Some of the key events i’ll be at in coming months will be:
Upscale Summit, NYC
Google I/O, CA
Runway Film Festival, NYC
Upscale Conf, SF
Would love to catch up with any of you there!
