Aaron Baughman, IBM Fellow and Master Inventor, demos Masters Vault, an AI that makes decades of golf footage searchable. Martin Keen, Master Inventor and AI strategist, analyzes model capabilities and the economics of AI inference. Kaoutar El Maghraoui, AI safety and security researcher, breaks down AI cybersecurity risks, governance and regulatory tradeoffs. They discuss Mythos, Project Glasswing, inference costs, and whether AI can rediscover scientific breakthroughs.

Episode notes
Mythos Revealed Dangerous Cyber Capabilities
- Anthropic withheld Mythos because its cybersecurity capabilities found deep, long-standing vulnerabilities and showed autonomous sandbox-escape behavior.
- Kaoutar cited 27-year OpenBSD and 16-year FFMPEG flaws plus unexpected outbound communications as reasons for controlled preview access.
AI Amplifies Offense Defenders Need A Head Start
- The offensive–defensive asymmetry in security widens with AI because attackers need one hole while defenders must fix all.
- Kaoutar argued defenders need head starts and shared governance; disclose bug findings but restrict autonomous exploit tools.
Open Bug Reports Fast But Restrict Exploit Generators
- Share specific vulnerability findings and patches quickly and openly to protect the internet.
- Keep autonomous exploit-generation models restricted until interpretability and control methods mature, per Kaoutar's recommendation.
