AI is having a moment, but it's not a danger to cryptography — yet

After Anthropic's Mythos model found a weakness in the post-quantum signature scheme HAWK, the algorithm was removed from NIST evaluation. HAWK researcher Leo Ducas said panic around 'post-AI cryptography' is unfounded.

• Mythos found a way to weaken the HAWK digital signature scheme
• HAWK was removed from NIST standardization evaluation after revisions
• HAWK author Leo Ducas sees no threat to all cryptography
