360 AI Vulnerability Discovery Agent Finds Nearly 1,000 Zero-Day Exploits, Competing with Mythos

Gate News message, April 22 — Chinese cybersecurity company 360 Digital Security Group has developed an AI-driven Vulnerability Discovery Agent that has identified nearly 1,000 previously unknown software vulnerabilities in recent months, according to a report by Eugenio Benincasa, a senior researcher at ETH Zurich’s Security Research Center, as cited by Bloomberg. The discovered vulnerabilities affect products including Microsoft Office and OpenClaw, an open-source AI agent framework.

360 stated that AI has “evolved from an auxiliary tool to the core engine of vulnerability discovery.” Earlier this year, the company also announced development of an AI tool designed to accelerate the construction of exploit chains—the prerequisite conditions for compromising target computers.

Benincasa characterized 360 as positioning itself as a direct competitor to Anthropic’s Mythos. The report was compiled by Natto Thoughts, a research firm specializing in Chinese cybersecurity developments, based on a review of 360’s recent Chinese-language announcements.

AI Agents can already independently recreate complex academic papers: Mollick says most errors come from human original text rather than AI

Mollick points out that publicly available methods and data can allow AI agents to reproduce complex research without the original paper and code; if the reproduction does not match the original paper, it is usually due to errors in the paper’s own data processing or overextension of the conclusions, rather than the AI. Claude first reproduces the paper, and then GPT‑5 Pro cross-validates it; most attempts succeed, but they are blocked when the data is too large or when there are issues with the replication data. This trend greatly reduces labor costs, making reproduction a widely actionable form of verification, and it also raises institutional challenges for peer review and governance, with government governance tools or becoming a key issue.
