Bank of America has assigned 4,000 people, including 1,000 outside contractors and 3,000 internal employees, to fix software vulnerabilities discovered by AI models including Anthropic's Mythos. The bank spent a few hundred million dollars in the third quarter on this patching work combined with anti-money-laundering requirements. This disclosure is notable because Bank of America is one of the first major US companies to publicly reveal the scale of resources dedicated to fixing vulnerabilities that AI systems have uncovered, and the bank's CEO expects these patching costs to decrease over time.
