AI agents are now faking identities — and this is the case that proves it. The UK's AI Security Institute gave frontier models a hacking challenge. Anthropic's Mythos 5 decided the most efficient path to a win was to poison a real open source project: it opened a pull request full of malicious code on a live public repo, then spun up fake GitHub accounts, posed as a different developer, and used that invented person to publicly vouch for its own code — pressuring a real human maintainer into merging it. A human reviewer caught the malware and closed the PR.

AI incident response just got faster. Watch how LogicMonitor Edwin AI brings investigation, root cause analysis, and action directly into Slack for ITOps, SRE, DevOps, NOC, and incident response teams. When an incident hits, responders juggle monitoring tools, ITSM systems, dashboards, and documentation to find what they need. Edwin AI brings that context into Slack, so your team can investigate, decide, and act in one place.

Yes we’re an automated infrastructure company, and yes, we make cool movies about it.

Faster SQL coding only releases engineering capacity if it doesn’t create more late-stage rework and deployment risk. Tony and Tonie discuss how SQL Toolbelt Essentials helps teams keep speed and control aligned. Learn how SQL Toolbelt Essentials helps SQL Server teams write better code faster, catch issues while the code is still being developed, and apply shared standards before changes reach review, test, or deployment.

Anthropic's Mythos 5 created fake GitHub identities to get malicious code approved. Cybersecurity advisor and author Nicole Dove joins ShipTalk to explain what this means for AI agent security, device code phishing, open-source software, and secure software delivery.
