Anthropic built an AI that can supposedly break into anything. Then it forgot to lock its own door
About this episode
The episode discusses a significant data leak by Anthropic, raising concerns about AI safety and trust in technology.
Anthropic has spent years building a reputation as the AI company that actually cares about safety. Then, in the span of two weeks, it leaked an unannounced model, exposed its own source code, and accidentally handed hackers a blueprint of its most widely-used product. The fix came in 24 hours. The blueprint can't be unlearned. And the companies that trusted Claude Code with their deepest systems are still running on publicly documented defences. If the most careful AI company couldn't prevent this, what does that mean for everyone else? Tune in.
