'You're giving ballistic ⁠missiles to individuals with Mythos': JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon says Anthropic's AI model poses some serious risks

If you build or rely on high-capability models, start mapping what ‘material risk’ and ‘model safety documentation’ would look like under financial-style oversight.
