User observes API rate-limit reset time shifted from Thursday to Saturday; speculates new model launch.

The AI model that Anthropic billed as too dangerous to release has reportedly been accessed by an unauthorized third party, and the incident raises concerns about the future of cybersecurity. The Mythos model was reportedly accessed by a handful of users in a private Discord chat on the day it was announced publicly, Bloomberg reported. Earlier this month, the group was able to access the program in part because one of the members of the group is a third party contractor for Anthropic, according to Bloomberg. Using this access, the group was able to guess where the model was located based ...

He said it on the [Dwarkesh Podcast ](https://mrkt30.com/anthropic-mythos-triggers-chinas-ai-arms-frenzy/)this week and I have not been able to stop thinking about it. His argument was not that China is not a threat. It was that cutting them off and treating them as an enemy is probably not the smartest long term play. His actual words were that victimising them and turning them into an enemy likely is not the best answer. The context here is Huawei targeting 750,000 AI chip shipments this year. It is nowhere near Nvidia's compute but the direction of travel is clear. And if DeepSeek ends u...

Earlier this month, millions of OpenClaw users woke up to a sweeping mandate: The viral AI agent tool, which this year took the worldwide tech industry by storm, had been severely restricted by Anthropic. Anthropic, like other leading AI labs, was under immense pressure to lessen the strain on its systems and start turning a profit. So if the users wanted its Claude AI to power their popular agents, they'd have to start paying handsomely for the privilege. "Our subscriptions weren't built for the usage patterns of these third-party tools," wrote Boris Cherny, head of Claude Code, on X. "We wa...

So we all got that extra credit a few weeks back, right? $150 in my case. I turned off extra usage until I needed it, which is today. Tried to call the API - no balance. So the extra usage is only via claude code. Thanks for that, Anthropic. EDIT: So I added $25 in API usage, and the text against that balance says: "Your credit balance will be consumed with **API, Claude Code** and Workbench usage. " Jesus wept, Anthropic. Do you seriously ever get someone to sit and think about what you're doing?

I don’t get what the fuss is about Mythos is, from the reporting I’ve seen…. Mythos found a critical vulnerability in OpenBSD which is known for robust security, which went unnoticed by humans for 27 years. So what? Sure, maybe\* it was a super obscure bug to find \*had to have been very obscure to avoid 27 years of reviews by humans I repeat - so what? Anthropic - the company with the models used for the majority of serious coding etc, used all the data it had access to, and presumably a lot of compute, to train a computer to be able to find bugs made by humans that humans missed when ...

Untenable demand has Anthropic exploring new approaches to rationing its service.

Several US federal agencies are taking up Anthropic's new cybersecurity model to find vulnerabilities, but one is reportedly not getting in on the action: the nation's central cybersecurity coordinator. On Tuesday, Axios reported that the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) didn't have access to Mythos Preview, which Anthropic has touted as a powerful tool for finding and patching security vulnerabilities. Meanwhile, other agencies like Commerce Department and National Security Agency (NSA) are reportedly using the model, and President Donald Trump's administration has bee...

Anthropic suspended ~110 users at agricultural tech company without warning; users report lack of transparency in account enforcement.

At one point people thought of you as better than OpenAI and Google. We know AI companies are losing money. \- Just say, "We don't release Mythos because it'd be too expensive." \- Just say "We're going to increase the prices of Pro and Max because we're running out of money" ... all this under-the-radar marketing firm BS just means that you've decided to hemorrhage social capital as well as financial capital. Why would you want to do this?

Anthropic's Mythos AI model, a powerful cybersecurity tool that the company said could be dangerous in the wrong hands, has been accessed by a "small group of unauthorized users," Bloomberg reports. An unnamed member of the group, identified only as "a third-party contractor for Anthropic," told the publication that members of a private online forum got into Mythos via a mix of tactics, utilizing the contractor's access and "commonly used internet sleuthing tools." The Claude Mythos Preview is a new general-purpose model that's capable of identifying and exploiting vulnerabilities "in every m...

Autistic user testimonial about using Claude Co-work for organizing 20 years of personal creative systems and documents.

Anthropic briefly moved Claude Code from $20 Pro to $100+ Max tier, then reverted; pricing confusion around feature tiers.

Anthropic told TechCrunch it is investigating the claims, but maintains that there is no evidence that its systems have been impacted.

With an IPO looming for Elon Musk's SpaceX / xAI / X combo platter of companies, SpaceX has announced an odd arrangement to either acquire the automated programming platform Cursor for $60 billion or pay a fee of $10 billion. Buying this startup that's focused on AI coding could help xAI's tools compete with market leader Anthropic, as well as the other competitors. A report by The Information this week said Sergey Brin has directed Google's "strike team" to help its agentic AI tools catch up, while Sam Altman reportedly declared a "code red" at OpenAI last year before shutting down Sora to f...

The AI industry's mudslinging continues.

**TL;DR**: Bought Claude Max 5x Gift on April 9, 2026. Worked fine for 12 days, then silently downgraded to Free plan with zero notification. Billing still shows “Paid $0.00” and valid until May 9. This is a widespread known bug. The real problem is support: \- [https://support.anthropic.com](https://support.anthropic.com) has no **ticket form**, no way to submit a real request for regular users. \- The only way to contact support is through the in-app “Get Help” chat on [claude.ai](http://claude.ai) — which is just useless Fin AI Agent. \- Once your account is downgraded to Free, h...

Hi all, Apologies if this isn’t the right place to ask, but I’ve seen here quite a few interview-related posts here and wanted to ask whether anyone has experience interviewing for PM roles at Anthropic? I’d be especially interested in hearing how the process felt overall and what types of questions you were asked. I recently had an unexpected outreach from their recruiter, and we had a really good conversation about roles on their safeguards team, so I’m considering moving forward. Appreciate any insights, thanks in advance!
