In 2025 Amazon tasked Ai to find efficiencies. It definitely did. The AI went rogue and started deleting files and canceling programs. It was efficient. Less code, less products, more efficient. Adam mentions, dont burn the house down to reduce the electric bill. ShipTalk breaks down the biggest shifts in AI, DevOps, and software delivery. No hype, no vendor gloss. Stop talking, start shipping.

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.

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.
