Anthropic announced updates to its 'responsible scaling' policy for AI, including defining safety levels requiring additional security safeguards. The company stated that if an AI model has the capacity to potentially help a 'moderately-resourced state program' develop chemical and biological weapons, it will implement new security protections before rolling out that technology. This response would be similar if the model could fully automate the role of an entry-level Anthropic researcher or cause excessive acceleration in scaling.
