The story so far
On 2026-10-15, Bank of America CEO Brian Moynihan told CNBC that the bank had brought on 1,000 outside contractors during the second quarter. They worked alongside 3,000 internal staff members to patch software vulnerabilities. The campaign was launched to fix weaknesses in internal and third-party code. Those weaknesses had been exposed by advanced artificial intelligence systems, specifically Anthropic's Mythos model.
On 2026-10-22, Reuters reported that major U.S. banks were blocking third-party AI agents from operating inside customer accounts and making transactions. These agents are software assistants that act on a customer's behalf. Reuters cited two people familiar with the situation. The core problem, it said, is identification.
On 2026-10-26, Reuters reported that Bank of America, Blackstone, Citi and Morgan Stanley were lining up $63 billion in financing. The money would pay for Broadcom's AI chips and networking equipment, which would then be leased to Anthropic, the startup behind the Claude chatbot.
