Anthropic gives METR staff employee-level access for independent evaluations
What happened
On October 15 Anthropic said it has begun giving six METR staff employee-like access, including company hardware, office space and tools and systems close to those of its internal risk assessment team. Customer data, attorney-client privileged material and model architecture information stay off limits. TechCrunch reported on October 16 that the six researchers will independently evaluate Anthropic's models, safety practices and risk management. METR can publish its evaluations independently and Anthropic cannot veto publication, though it can ask that material in the pre-defined excluded categories be removed. Only the access arrangement and publication rules have been disclosed so far, not evaluation results.
