EU economic minister Carlos Cuerpo said discussions with Anthropic on using the Mythos AI model to assess banks and companies for digital vulnerabilities have made only limited progress and will return to the agenda at an EU finance ministers meeting on Friday. The latest report frames the stalled talks as exposing a broader cybersecurity gap in Europe and raising pressure for greater AI sovereignty and potential regulatory changes. Cuerpo also warned that digital weaknesses at major institutions can create cross-border financial stability risks that extend beyond Europe to the United States.
