Are the AI models available to the public truly the latest versions? While current systems astonish with their capabilities, private models remain hidden. The White House acknowledged Anthropic’s “Mythos” model, withheld from public release due to its cybersecurity abilities, including penetrating advanced electronic systems. It is currently restricted to select institutions.

Anthropic, the company behind “Claude,” has warned of the rapid pace of AI development, suggesting a temporary halt in building the most powerful systems amid signs that new models may escape human control. The firm argued that a global slowdown in advanced AI development “would likely be positive,” according to AFP.

Researchers highlight the risk of “recursive self-improvement,” where AI systems teach themselves without significant human input. This mechanism is precisely what Anthropic cautioned against. The company has even called for an international treaty akin to nuclear non-proliferation agreements, aimed at limiting the spread of AI weaponry and ensuring control. Yet persuading nations such as China, or monitoring programmers working behind closed doors, remains a daunting challenge.

Figures like Elon Musk and Anthropic emphasize the military, intelligence, and security uses of these powerful programs. With global reliance on digital systems for operations and data storage, questions arise: can cybersecurity truly guarantee protection against AI-driven attacks? Are there offline backups, or even paper-based records, to safeguard critical information?

Beyond technical risks, concerns grow over the psychological and intellectual health of future generations. Will humans disable their own cognitive abilities in favor of artificial intelligence, as calculators once replaced manual arithmetic? Or is the impact far deeper, threatening human reasoning and creativity?

The conclusion is clear: global governance, an international committee, and a binding ethical code for AI have become urgent necessities. Only through collective responsibility can humanity protect its future—if leaders and corporations retain any measure of conscience and wisdom.
