There are zero-day exploits for your mind (mikemorgenstern.substack.com) AI
The article argues that advances in AI security research—highlighted by Anthropic’s Claude Mythos, which reportedly found thousands of long-unpatched vulnerabilities quickly—are like “Move 37” in computer security: they reveal that defenses have been operating on an incomplete map of risk. It describes how Mythos outperforms prior models in finding zero-days, why patching can’t keep up with exploit discovery and leakage, and why coordination efforts may fail when the rate and scale of new bugs outstrip human attention. The author frames this as a step-change threat to software security and potentially broader attempts at protecting “human minds” from manipulation.
