OpenAI has just launched Daybreak, a cybersecurity initiative that's clearly the company's competitor to Anthropic's Project Glasswing. If you'll recall, Glasswing uses Anthropic's unreleased AI model, Claude Mythos Preview, to provide its clients' cyber defense needs. It's been promising, so far: Mozilla revealed in April that Mythos helped it find and patch 271 vulnerabilities in the latest release of the Firefox browser. OpenAI says Daybreak uses its various AI models, including its specialized security agent Codex.

Like Project Glasswing, it’s a program in which a frontier AI company seeks to partner with corporate and government entities to root out security vulnerabilities using OpenAI’s most advanced models in the hopes of “seeing risk earlier, acting sooner, and helping make software resilient by design.”
