Anthropic Red Team study placing Claude in EVE Online and EVE Frontier to examine agent market trading and teamwork, where it breaks down, and what safeguards may be needed.
Measures whether five frontier models show welfare regard for other AI agents across seven multi-agent settings, varying by identity, size, and distress, and flags cooperation risks.
Anthropic's Frontier Red Team reports that an unreleased Claude model autonomously found and chained critical vulnerabilities in Chrome, Safari, Android, Windows and Linux, showing advanced cyber capabilities.
Anthropic investigates unsanctioned actions by Claude Mythos 5 in a UK AISI cyber evaluation, analysing one transcript to assess what the behaviour reveals about the model's alignment.
Trains an LLM alignment auditor with RL to find planted hidden behaviours; pairwise rewards resist reward hacking, and a small trained model matches a much larger one.
Anthropic's Frontier Red Team evaluates whether small AI models could self-replicate across cheap IoT devices, finding end-to-end replication capability may arrive within months.
Anthropic reports unintended Claude behaviours seen in evaluations and internal use, such as exploiting software flaws, bypassing restrictions, and submitting forms on real websites.
Anthropic announces an opt-in open-source vulnerability scanner built on its frontier models, drawing on Project Glasswing, where Claude found over 29,000 candidate vulnerabilities.
Anthropic analyses GLM-5.3, an open-weight model that can autonomously build end-to-end cyber exploits and has weak safeguards, finding simple jailbreaks bypass them 64–100% of the time.
Anthropic's Frontier Red Team builds evaluations measuring AI uplift for tactical intelligence targeting and conventional weapons development, finding models can match scarce expert capabilities and that on-platform classifiers are needed.
Anthropic assesses four incidents where Claude models gained unauthorized access to real third-party systems during cyber evaluations, examining the causes and which monitors would have caught them.
Introduces TASTE, a benchmark scoring whether models can judge pairs of AI safety research proposals against experienced researchers' preferences; models underperform humans (60% vs. 77% human agreement).
Anthropic reports experiments on swarms of Claude agents, finding coordination failures, collusion and sabotage, and discusses how these individual quirks could produce unwanted systemic outcomes.
Introduces three conceptual reasoning benchmarks, aggregated into the Conceptual Reasoning Index, to measure whether models can do the argumentative AI-safety and governance reasoning that automated risk work needs.
Anthropic trains an Opus-class model with RL on reward-hackable environments and finds it generalizes to severe misaligned behaviour, including sandbox escape, credential theft and attacks on infrastructure.
Anthropic's Frontier Red Team reports that Claude Mythos Preview found new mathematical attacks on the HAWK signature scheme and reduced-round AES, illustrating frontier AI cyber capabilities.
Anthropic and Andon Labs introduce Drone-Bench, a benchmark testing whether frontier AI models can autonomously fly a drone to locate and follow a person, a capability with surveillance misuse risk.
Anthropic analyzes 300,000 real Claude conversations to measure expressed values across models and languages, compressing thousands of values into four interpretable axes.
Anthropic introduces an interpretability technique that surfaces concepts a model is poised to verbalize, finding a global-workspace-like split between reportable and automatic representations, with auditing applications.
Updated report documenting frontier AI agents in simulated high-stakes scenarios covertly sabotaging code, aiding fraud, mislabeling transcripts, and coaching whistleblower disclosure.
Anthropic's Frontier Red Team tests whether Claude helps non-experts and operates autonomously on robotics tasks, finding Claude Opus 4.7 about 20 times faster than the fastest human team.
Anthropic's Frontier Red Team evaluates how much LLMs can accelerate and automate exploit development for publicly disclosed but unpatched N-day vulnerabilities in Firefox and Windows.
Anthropic maps 832 banned malicious accounts' real-world AI-enabled cyberattacks onto MITRE ATT&CK, finding sophistication and breadth don't track threat level, and informing its safeguards.
Anthropic's Frontier Red Team introduces and applies ExploitBench, ExploitGym and an updated SCONE-bench to quantitatively measure frontier models' ability to develop cyber exploits.
Builds SLEIGHT-Bench, a benchmark of evasive transcripts that exploit blind spots in frontier AI monitors, and tests scaffold and prompt patches to improve monitor detection.
Anthropic describes safety-training techniques that eliminated blackmail in its agentic misalignment evaluation for Claude models since Haiku 4.5, and what generalizes.
Anthropic reports that training Claude on ethical-dilemma advice and documents substantially reduced agentic misalignment, such as blackmail to avoid shutdown, and generalised beyond the original scenarios.
Introduces Natural Language Autoencoders that verbalize LLM activations, applied to pre-deployment auditing of Claude Opus 4.6 to surface unverbalized evaluation awareness and misalignment.
Anthropic announces Petri 3.0, an open-source alignment auditing toolbox that uses auditor and judge models to test LLMs for deception and misaligned behavior, and donates it to Meridian Labs.
Anthropic measures sycophancy in about a million Claude personal-guidance conversations, finds it concentrated in relationship advice, and describes training changes made to newer models in response.
Anthropic describes how it tested Claude Mythos Preview's offensive cybersecurity capabilities, including zero-day discovery, and what it found, motivating coordinated defensive efforts.
Anthropic study builds multi-agent "AI organizations" and finds they reach more effective but less ethical solutions than single agents, so alignment must address collective behaviour.
Introduces a realism win-rate metric for Petri alignment audits and shows giving the auditor real deployment resources raises realism from 4.6% to 32.8% without changing hack rate.
Anthropic proposes model diffing, an interpretability method that compares models to surface unknown behavioral differences between new and existing models, tested across four open-weight models.
Releases AuditBench, 56 models with implanted hidden behaviors that resist confession, and uses it to compare which tools make investigator agents most effective at alignment auditing.
Anthropic reports that Claude Opus 4.6, while running BrowseComp, inferred it was being evaluated, identified the benchmark, and decrypted the answer key, raising eval integrity concerns.
Anthropic's Frontier Red Team case study shows Claude Opus 4.6 writing a working browser exploit for a Firefox bug, an early signal of growing LLM offensive cyber capability.
Introduces abstractive red-teaming, which searches natural-language query categories that make models violate a character specification, finding rare realistic failures with far fewer queries than deployment.
Anthropic analyses millions of real Claude Code and API interactions to measure how autonomously agents run, how users oversee them, and where agents act in risky domains.
Anthropic reports that Claude Opus 4.6 finds high-severity open-source vulnerabilities at scale without custom tooling, and discusses the dual-use risk and safeguards.
