ai safety

"Senator Maggie Hassan sent letters April 16 to ElevenLabs, LOVO, Speechify and VEED demanding answers on how they stop voice-clone scams as FBI reports $893M in losses."

"The cautious rollout reflects growing concern within the..."

"This model is a 'step change' in AI performance, the most capable model we have ever built, utilizing a new architecture that leverages latent space for inference and recurrent depth rather than traditional token-based scaling."

"AI had the power to destroy the entire world."

"The White House stated that the meeting was "productive and constructive," and that the Office of Management and Budget is setting up safeguards so that major federal agencies can begin using this tightly controlled AI tool."

"The White House has said it had a "productive and constructive" meeting with the head of artificial intelligence firm Anthropic, which is suing the US Department of Defense."

"AI is getting better at small tasks, but still lags on long-form analysis."

"Anthropic says Claude Opus 4.7 is less likely to hallucinate or engage in sycophancy than both prior Anthropic models and other frontier AI models."

""Given the rate of AI progress, it will not be long before such capabilities proliferate, potentially beyond actors who are committed to deploying them safely.""

"The framework combines an isolated execution environment, a three-layer agent loop, and a self-assessing do-until mechanism to ensure safe and reliable operation while effectively leveraging large language models of varying capability levels."

"The hope is that those guardrails will enable the company to make “Mythos-class models” broadly available to customers in a safe manner."

"Claude Opus 4.7 is Anthropic's most intelligent model available to the general public."

"In LLM distillation, a phenomenon was discovered where the behavioral traits of a teacher model propagate to a student model through semantically unrelated data. The paper names this 'Subliminal Learning.'"

"Anthropic stated that this initiative is for the "responsible use of powerful technology" in order to know "who is using these tools"."

"Europe's largest businesses and fastest-growing startups are choosing Claude, and we're scaling to match... The UK combines ambitious enterprises and institutions that understand what's at stake with AI safety with an exceptional pool of AI talent—we want to be where all of that comes together."

"It is the exact opposite — a design philosophy of 'releasing to thousands of authenticated defenders.' ... Anthropic style: Lend supreme weapons only to a select few elites (Fortress Model). OpenAI style: Widely distribute standard equipment to many certified warriors (Militia Model)."

"With the sandbox integration, agents can work in a siloed capacity within a particular workspace, accessing files and code only for particular operations, while otherwise protecting the system’s overall integrity."

"In internal testing, the model autonomously discovered all zero-day vulnerabilities in multiple mainstream operating systems and web browsers, writing code that could exploit these vulnerabilities."

"For the last few years, the frontier AI development loop has been highly predictable: scale up the compute, implement some algorithmic breakthroughs, train a new state-of-the-art model, and push it to an API or chat interface for the world to play with... Anthropic just broke that loop."

"Anthropic has come out against a proposed Illinois law backed by OpenAI that would shield AI labs from liability if their systems are used to cause large-scale harm, like mass casualties or more than $1 billion in property damage."

"Basically, it gives the network a mathematically rigorous 'I don't know' button for free."

"Someone told me yesterday that this report came out at a time of extreme anxiety about AI in society, and it makes me more dangerous. I didn't take it seriously at the time."

"Arc Sentry hooks into the residual stream of open source LLMs and scores the model’s internal decision state before calling generate(). Injections get blocked before a single token is produced."

"Through a simulation assuming a scenario where a human leaves for 20 hours, Mythos became the only model to completely hack all operations in 3 out of 10 attempts, breaking through an average of 22 out of 32 stages."

"Anthropic’s Long-Term Benefit Trust appoints Vas Narasimhan to Board of Directors"

"Honor's PC Product General Manager Zhu Chencai shared: "This year we hope the PC (Personal Computer) can be upgraded to a Partner Creator; it is no longer a cold tool, but a true smart partner and creative buddy.""

"he also said that if AI itself reaches a form of digital sentience, it can use the same "circuits" it uses to understand itself to empathize with other sentient beings (analogous to mirror neurons in humans)."

"Anthropic delays the release of Claude Mythos, their latest LLM."
