- Topics: Anthropic AI/safety Jared Kaplan
- Summary: «Anthropic, the wildly successful AI company that has cast itself as the most safety-conscious of the top research labs, is dropping the central pledge of its flagship safety policy, company officials tell TIME.» ... chief science officer Jared Kaplan: «“We didn't really feel, with the rapid advance of AI, that it made sense for us to make unilateral commitments … if competitors are blazing ahead.”» ... «Kaplan [...] denied the company’s decision to change course was a capitulation to market incentives as the race for superintelligence accelerates. He framed it instead as a pragmatic response to emerging political and scientific realities.» It's a "pragmatic response" to "political ... realities", but definitely not "capitulation"...
