Claims / C-KMVYW7X1C3

Analytic

METR's check on Anthropic ran mostly on Claude; an audit done with the audited AI is not fully independent.

The claim

An assessment of an AI lab that runs mostly on that lab's own AI is not fully independent: METR reports Claude did most of the analysis in its assessment of Claude's maker, and cross-checks against human interviews are the safeguard.
