  Anthropic's

  Mozilla

  as

  a

• 0:20
  It

  a

  So

  they

  Within

  twenty

  By

  the

• 0:31
  Anthropic's

  researchers

  finished

  Anthropic

  Most

  The

  on

  the

  side.
• 0:53
  Anthropic
• 0:54
  tested

  whether

  Claude

  turn

  After

  several

  hundred

• 1:04
  Opus

  4.6
• 1:05
  succeeded
• 1:05
  in
• 1:05
  only
• 1:05
  two
• 1:06
  cases,
• 1:06
  and
• 1:06
  only
• 1:07
  against
• 1:07
  a

  environment
• 1:08
  with

  stripped.

  The

  sandbox,
• 1:11
  the
• 1:11
  real
• 1:11
  defense-in-depth
• 1:12
  layer,
• 1:12
  would
• 1:12
  have
• 1:12
  stopped
• 1:12
  both.
• 1:13
  But
• 1:13
  the
• 1:14
  gap
• 1:14
  between
• 1:14
  "finds
• 1:15
  bugs
• 1:15
  brilliantly"
• 1:16
  and
• 1:16
  "can

  sometimes
• 1:17
  write
• 1:17
  crude
• 1:17
  exploits"
• 1:18
  is
• 1:18
  narrowing.
• 1:19
  Anthropic's
• 1:19
  own
• 1:20
  assessment:
• 1:20
  it
• 1:21
  is
• 1:21
  unlikely
• 1:21
  the
• 1:21
  exploitation
• 1:22
  gap
• 1:22
  lasts
• 1:22
  long.

  The

  the
• 1:25
  advantage
• 1:25
  is
• 1:25
  still
• 1:25
  here,
• 1:26
  but
• 1:26
  it
• 1:26
  has

  an

  Stage

  Only

• 2:08
  The

  timing
• 2:09
  is
• 2:09
  deliberate:
• 2:10
  as
• 2:10
  AI-discovered
• 2:11
  vulnerabilities
• 2:11
  proliferate,
• 2:12
  defenders
• 2:13
  need
• 2:13
  tools
• 2:13
  that
• 2:13
  are
• 2:13
  accessible,
• 2:14
  not
• 2:14
  just
