Evan Greenberg discusses how Anthropic's code-generation AI can find vulnerabilities, lowering the threshold for what counts as a vulnerability, and notes that this is an emerging offensive tool in cyber security.

“anthropic is a code generator so it can read code so it's it shouldn't be shocking That since it can read code, look at another use that has emerged”
Property pricing in shared & layered markets is down 25% QoQ and heading to 30%, while loss costs run 4-5% – a clear sign of unsustainable pricing driven by volume-based MGAs and alternative capital. — Aggressive pricing in large property E&S signals that capital providers (reinsurers, ILS funds, MGAs) are taking on poor risk-reward; traditional insurers with discipline like Chubb are shrinking, but peers still chasing volume could face adverse development.
Доказательства
“If I sort of step back and look at overall market rate in Shared and Layered, in North America and in London, pricing overall is off 25% in the quarter, heading to 30.”
The arms race in cyber insurance is accelerating as AI code generators (like Anthropic’s) lower the bar for identifying vulnerabilities; middle-market companies are the most exposed due to weaker hygiene. — Insurers may demand higher cyber premiums and stricter policy conditions; cybersecurity vendors (CrowdStrike, Cisco) could see increased demand for monitoring and patch automation as underwriters tighten requirements.
Доказательства
“The arms race is on. Now it is about hygiene and services to monitor and to support clients and identifying and fixing.”
