South Korea making its own security-centric AI model

South Korea is developing a security-focused AI model to rival Anthropic's Mythos, aiming for sovereign bug-finding capabilities by 2026. This follows U.S. government actions blocking access to Mythos, prompting global interest in independent AI development. The model will be trained with security-related data, and the government also plans to create a free public chatbot and an agentic application for government services.
