HASSETT: NO SIGN OF RUNAWAY INFLATION FOR FED TO RAISE RATES

Vice President JD Vance raised concerns in a call with major AI company leaders, including OpenAI’s Sam Altman, Anthropic’s Dario Amodei, Elon Musk, Sundar Pichai and Satya Nadella, that advanced AI models such as Anthropic’s Mythos could autonomously identify software vulnerabilities and potentially enable cyberattacks on critical infrastructure like banks, hospitals and water systems. According to people familiar with the discussion, Vance urged coordination among companies and the government, while the White House is considering an executive order to create formal oversight for frontier AI models and has asked Anthropic to delay broader deployment of Mythos. National Cyber Director Sean Cairncross is leading the response effort, though the approach has reportedly triggered internal debate over whether it represents an overreaction or a policy shift.
