In this episode of the Macro AI Podcast, Gary Sloper and Scott Bryan break down one of the most important—and not fully understood—developments in artificial intelligence and cybersecurity: Anthropic’s Mythos model and Project Glasswing.

Mythos is not just another AI model. It represents a fundamental shift from human-limited cybersecurity to compute-driven vulnerability discovery, where AI systems can autonomously analyze code, identify zero-day vulnerabilities, and generate working exploits at unprecedented speed.

But the real story isn’t just the capability—it’s how it’s being controlled.

Anthropic’s Project Glasswing is a first-of-its-kind defensive initiative that restricts access to Mythos and deploys it across a coalition of the world’s most critical technology providers—including major cloud platforms, infrastructure companies, and cybersecurity leaders. The goal: give defenders a critical head start to identify, triage, and patch vulnerabilities before similar capabilities become widely available.

Gary and Scott explain:

• What Mythos actually is (and why it’s more than just “AI for coding”)
• How agentic AI systems are changing cybersecurity workflows
• Why the real risk is not AI attacks—but the collapse of the vulnerability response window
• What Project Glasswing is doing to prevent a large-scale cyber crisis
• Why over 99% of discovered vulnerabilities remain unpatched and what that means for enterprises
• How AI introduces entirely new attack surfaces, including tool access, prompt injection, and data exposure

Most importantly, they provide a clear, executive-level framework for what leaders must do now—from accelerating patch cycles and enforcing AI governance, to rethinking vendor risk and operational security models.

This episode is designed for CIOs, CISOs, CTOs, and business leaders who need to understand:

How AI is fundamentally reshaping cybersecurity—and what it will take to stay ahead.

What if the next billion-dollar company doesn’t have employees, offices, or even a traditional org chart?

In this episode of the Macro AI Podcast, Gary Sloper and Scott Bryan explore the rise of the “Solo Unicorn”—a one-person company powered by AI agents, automation, and orchestration platforms that could realistically reach a $1B valuation.

This isn’t just hype. It’s a fundamental shift in how businesses are built and scaled.

As AI collapses the cost of execution across coding, marketing, customer support, and operations, the traditional relationship between revenue and headcount is breaking. Companies are no longer limited by people—they’re increasingly driven by systems, inference, and intelligent automation.

Gary and Scott break down what this means in practice:

• How a single founder can orchestrate an “agent swarm” to run an entire business
• Why the real bottleneck is shifting from labor to judgment and decision-making
• The emerging economics of AI-driven companies—buying intelligence at machine prices and selling outcomes at human value
• Where the first Solo Unicorn is most likely to emerge (hint: not where most people think)
• Why data, workflow depth, and trust will matter more than access to AI tools
• The risks of over-automation, system drift, and operating without human buffers

They also explore a powerful alternative path: instead of building from scratch, could a solo founder acquire and transform an existing business using AI—unlocking massive margin expansion and valuation upside?

This episode goes beyond surface-level AI hype and gets into the structural implications for business leaders. If one person can operate at a fraction of the cost and complexity of a traditional company, what does that mean for your organization?

The Solo Unicorn may not be common—but the forces behind it are already reshaping the competitive landscape.
