ANTHROPIC SEES AI RISKS RISING, NO PLAN TO RELEASE STRONGER "MODEL 2"

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Anthropic says it will not release an internal model it claims to be more powerful than Mythos and that it will not slow development broadly. The company believes that the risks of the most serious harms from its models are still low. While the company is seeing signs of acceleration in its models' ability to conduct automated research and development, it appears to be signaling that it is getting harder to understand the capabilities and risks of its own models. OpenAI says it is slowing down the release of an upcoming model called Astra because it can't rule out critical cyber capabilities.
