AI is poised to transform the domain of cybersecurity. Anthropic’s Safeguards team recently identified and banned a user with limited coding abilities leveraging Claude to develop malware. Research suggests that this lowering of the bar for expertise needed to pose a threat, combined with the falling costs of large language models (LLMs), presages a dramatic shift in the economics of cyberattacks.[1] To understand the present state of AI cyber capabilities and gain insight into their trajectory, we pursue different approaches to model evaluation, including publicly available and custom-made be
