“… kind of the debate that's been raging internally about some of his recent decision-making. Okay, before we do this, I'm going to tell you about CrowdStrike. Your business is AI.”
“… the Casey Neistat style on the Ray-Bans, you know what he does, where he spray paints them white and then like scratches off the whites. Oh, it's a really, really cool design. He's very popular for this. All right, let's maybe skip forward and talk about kind of the debate that's been raging internally about some of his recent decision-making. Okay, before we do this, I'm going to tell you about CrowdStrike. Your business is AI.”

John Ternus, Apple's potential next CEO, is a car racing and cycling enthusiast, but he's also known for being risk-averse, much like Tim Cook. His cautious approach has some executives questioning whether he can innovate or if he will maintain the status quo at Apple. As the debate heats up, Ternus's leadership style could define the future of the tech giant.
“… And when I had to be NIST compliant at a previous company, I actually had to take my security profile backwards because I couldn't use things like CrowdStrike because the regulations prevented me from using things in the cloud where other people had access to. And so you really need to look at what's best for the business and how to enable your business to do what it needs to do. Have you ever seen somebody with an RF gun trying to type in a 20-character password, and it's just not practical, right? So looking at the controls that you have in place and the risk associated with them, so let's reduce …”
“… this is the day we need to stop. So like, how do you figure this out, Julie? Yeah, it's not an easy one. And I can give you a prime example. I've always said compliance is not security, right? That's a theme that we've had many times too. Yes. Yeah. And when I had to be NIST compliant at a previous company, I actually had to take my security profile backwards because I couldn't use things like CrowdStrike because the regulations prevented me from using things in the cloud where other people had access to. And so you really need to look at what's best for the business and how to enable your business to do what it needs to do. Have you ever seen somebody with an RF gun trying to type in a 20-character password, and it's just not practical, right? So looking at the controls that you have in place and the risk associated with them, so let's reduce the length of the password for those individuals to make it easier for them. But the domain admins, maybe we do keep it more complex or better protected. So it's really taking a step back and looking at what are we trying to do here? How do we enable the business to do what they need to do at the same time of reducing risk around the highest risk …”

Compliance can hinder security measures, as seen when regulations forced a company to revert to less effective security protocols. This highlights the need for businesses to reassess their security controls regularly and ensure they align with actual risk management rather than outdated compliance requirements. The conversation emphasizes the importance of adapting security practices to the evolving needs of the business.
“You would see the traditional cybersecurity platforms, you know, the Palo Alto, the WEEZ, the CrowdStrike of the world. You'd see the cloud providers, you know, Google, Amazon, Microsoft.

In less than a year, AI has transformed predictions about cybersecurity, leading to companies achieving remarkable revenues with minimal staff. For instance, a single-founder company reached $3.5 million in annual revenue, while another hit $100 million with only 20 employees. This trend suggests that we might soon see Fortune 100 companies operating cybersecurity teams with fewer than 10 employees, shifting the profession towards a function driven by AI.
“… AWS CISO Amy Herzog saying that her team has been using the model to test critical code bases, saying it is already helping us strengthen our code.

In their blog post announcing the plan, Anthropic wrote, Project Glasswing is a starting point. No one organization can solve these cybersecurity problems alone. Frontier AI developers, other software companies, security researchers, open source maintainers, and governments across the world all have essential roles to play. The work of defending the world's cyber infrastructure might take years, but frontier AI capabilities are likely to advance substantially over just the next few months. For cyber defenders to …”

Anthropic's decision to pause Mythos AI and launch Glasswing reflects a necessary industry-wide mobilization to address urgent cybersecurity threats, despite the terrifying potential of AI as a cyberweapon.
The Mythos AI model is a powerful tool that could revolutionize cybersecurity but also poses significant risks if misused, likened to a cyberweapon capable of mass destruction.
AI's dual role in cybersecurity is both a powerful defense tool and a potential cyberweapon, creating a race against time to manage its implications.

A recent supply chain attack on the Axios NPM package highlights the vulnerabilities in software dependency management. Hackers stole a developer's login, injected malicious code into the package, and exploited it to target millions of users before the breach was detected. This incident underscores the urgent need for tighter security measures in package management systems.

He says, is because of a combination of compute constraints, economic reality, competitive advantage, and safety concerns. Three means the most relevant models may be decreasingly legible to the general public. And depending on the extent and duration of the coming compute squeeze, we could enter a market dynamic where the best models are only available to the highest bidder.

As AI models become the fastest depreciating assets in history, companies are racing to secure the best technology for cybersecurity. With increasing compute constraints and economic realities, the most advanced models may only be accessible to the highest bidders. This creates a competitive landscape where security and governance become paramount for both businesses and the U.S. economy.
