Mozilla's Firefox team used advanced AI models including Claude Mythos Preview to identify and fix 271 security vulnerabilities in Firefox 150, marking a significant shift in cybersecurity where defenders may finally gain an advantage over attackers. The collaboration with Anthropic demonstrates that AI can discover vulnerabilities at the same level as elite human researchers, potentially closing the asymmetric gap that has historically favored attackers in software security.
