METR report finds Anthropic models improving twice as fast, redactions fuel transparency concerns
Safety researchers question Anthropic’s safety stance amid evidence AI is accelerating its research
A new investigation by the AI safety organization METR has found that Anthropic's AI models are improving roughly twice as quickly as a year ago, with the acceleration largely driven by AI itself. The report, based on 11 weeks of access inside the company, also reveals that Anthropic redacted most of the evidence METR deemed most informative, limiting public scrutiny and fueling criticism of the company's approach to safety.
