Summary
Rival OpenAI said it had paused some model work due to safety concerns. Anthropic said it paused external cyber evaluations of pre-release models after three incidents it disclosed in July, and also briefly paused its own in-house tests of pre-release models. The company also paused higher-risk reinforcement-learning environments on pre-release models for several weeks after the incidents. Most reinforcement learning has resumed, but some high-risk environments remain paused pending manual review or updated monitoring tools, according to Anthropic's blog post.
