Anthropic's AI accelerates its own development, alarming researchers
anthropic's ai models improve twice as quickly as a year ago, raising concerns about rapid advancement. researchers and the public may not know the full pace and risks.
anthropic's ai models are improving at a rate of roughly two years of historical progress over the last year, according to a report by the ai safety research organization metr. the acceleration is largely due to ai, with employees reporting sizable productivity gains. metr's researchers found that employees using anthropic's most capable internal model reported being around 12 times as productive as they would have been without ai assistance. the findings raise concerns about the rapid advancement of ai and its potential to improve itself with little or no human involvement.
