Mythos, introduced in early 2026, dramatically accelerated vulnerability detection — finding over 10x more vulnerabilities than previous frontier models — and spawned what experts call the 'Mythos Effect' on IT and OT security management. Qihoo's CEO Zhou Hongyi drew parallels to the nuclear arms race, framing AI-powered vulnerability discovery as a new form of strategic deterrence and mutual assured destruction. Tulongfeng's capabilities remain unverified, though Zhou claims it has found over 3,000 vulnerabilities. Meanwhile, Anthropic has already advanced to Mythos 5, but the US government has restricted its release over national security concerns. The escalating AI-driven vulnerability race is creating mounting resource and prioritization challenges for cybersecurity teams globally, while cybercriminals also seek access to such models. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
