What the Fed Can Do About Anthropic's Latest System - Wall Street Week
Apr 25, 2026
Anthropic says its newest AI system can detect serious cybersecurity risks, but the new technology is so powerful that the company is holding back public release. The nearly autonomous system can detect banking software vulnerabilities and spawn sub-agents that operate without human oversight at unprecedented speed. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Fed Chair Jay Powell took the unusual step of calling in major bank leaders to discuss the risks raised by the new model. Experts weigh in on whether regulation and open-source tools can keep the financial system safe.
