China spy chief points at US AI models in cyber threat warning

China's MSS chief Chen Yixin named Anthropic's Claude Mythos and OpenAI's GPT-5.5-Cyber as cyber threats to Chinese critical infrastructure.

Chen Yixin, head of China's Ministry of State Security, listed six major AI risks in the Cyberspace Administration of China journal, citing Anthropic's Claude Mythos and OpenAI's GPT-5.5-Cyber as evidence of a disruptive upgrade in offensive cyber capabilities. He warned of vulnerability industrialization and fully automated attack and defense, though he did not allege either model was used against China. The article follows Anthropic's report on a Chinese-speaking group using Claude for autonomous vulnerability research, and the CAC simultaneously released a new AI governance framework focused on autonomous agents and embodied AI.

China Calls Amodei’s AI Proposal a New Cold War Playbook

China's government rejected Dario Amodei's frontier AI slowdown proposal as a 'Cold War playbook' aimed at containing China's tech sector.

China's Foreign Ministry and state-backed Global Times attacked Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei's 'We Must Pace the Frontier' essay, calling it fearmongering and US containment strategy. Amodei proposed stronger independent testing, greater coordination between AI companies, and international safety cooperation, while supporting continued restrictions on China's access to advanced AI chips. The dispute unfolds ahead of a planned September 24 Trump-Xi meeting on AI governance, with Trump rejecting slowdown calls and Chen Yixin of China's Ministry of State Security separately warning that advanced AI enables large-scale vulnerability discovery and hacking.

Treasury’s Scott Bessent says no liability exemptions for AI labs

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent urged Congress to reject AI labs' requested liability exemptions, arguing creator liability is the best safety guarantee.

Testifying before the House Financial Services Committee, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the government should not grant frontier labs liability waivers, responding to Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei's slowdown essay. He cited Treasury's AI safety work since the release of Anthropic's Mythos model, whose cybersecurity risks prompted an April meeting, and coordination with banks and labs after the July Hugging Face cyberattack. Bessent also highlighted the Gold Eagle clearinghouse run with CISA and called for more US-built open-source models to counter China.

What's Scarier Than Agents Taking over Internet? CEO Cartel Trying Take over AI

Opinion essay argues Dario Amodei's proposals for embedded evaluators and frontier AI coordination would require antitrust waivers and entrench a large-lab cartel.

The author critiques Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei's proposal for embedded evaluators inside AI labs, democratic coordination on safety standards and pacing, and global coordination with authoritarian governments. He argues such coordination requires loosening antitrust law, burdening startups while shielding incumbents like Anthropic, OpenAI, and xAI, and doubts verifiable global pacing given enormous defection incentives. The piece links lab motivations to data center subsidy pushback, competition from open-source and low-cost Chinese models, and upcoming IPO financial disclosures.

The latest AI doomsayer is China’s intelligence boss

China's State Security Minister Chen Yixin frames AI as a strategic battleground, urging technological sovereignty and new AI laws as CAC publishes safety framework 3.0.

Chen Yixin, China's minister for State Security, published an article in China Cyberspace Magazine calling AI the main battleground for global technological competition and warning it could be weaponized to exploit vulnerabilities, attack infrastructure, and steal secrets. He urged technological sovereignty, special AI laws, and Xi Jinping-aligned modernization of national security capabilities, citing risks from foreign AI products and user data leakage. The Cyberspace Administration of China followed with version 3.0 of its AI Safety Governance Framework, endorsing regulatory sandboxes and risk-controllable mechanisms. The stance implies continued exclusion of Nvidia and AMD GPUs from the Chinese market.
