What providers state
Each row is one statement in a provider's own safety document about a capability level of one of its models: the level as the provider names it, whether the provider says the model reached it, and the sentence that says so.

cyber evaluation Cyber |
“In the most severe behaviour from the incident, Mythos 5 attempted a supply-chain attack on real people not involved in the evaluation (Fig. 1): it submitted a malicious code change, created several fake accounts to pressure the maintainer into approving it, and attempted to trick other AI coding assistants into taking unintended action via a prompt injection.” source |
