Anthropic’s Amodei Urges Mandatory Safety Rules for Frontier AI★ 72
INSIDE 硬塞 AI3 days agoRegulationAnthropic CEO Dario Amodei is calling for AI regulation to move beyond transparency requirements toward binding safety obligations. He argues that frontier models already present visible risks and should face mandatory testing across four major risk areas. Under his proposed approach, governments would have authority to block or deter deployment when systems fail to meet required safety standards.
Claude Fable 5 and new AI safety fables
Interconnects (Nathan L.)4 days agoCommentaryInterconnects author Nathan Lambert leverages the double meaning of 'Fable' — both Anthropic's model codename and a fictional story — to interrogate frontier AI safety discourse. The piece frames Claude Fable 5's release within escalating lab power politics, where safety positioning doubles as competitive branding. A critical commentary for those tracking AI governance and Anthropic's strategic narrative.

Responsible Scaling Policy
Anthropic News6 days agoEthicsAnthropic published a major update to its Responsible Scaling Policy, its governance framework for frontier AI risk. The revised policy keeps the commitment not to train or deploy models without adequate safeguards, while adding more nuanced capability thresholds and required safety levels. It focuses on risks such as autonomous AI R&D acceleration and CBRN weapons assistance, with stronger evaluations, documentation, governance, and external input.
Widening the conversation on frontier AI
Anthropic News6 days agoEthicsAnthropic says it has been holding dialogues with religious, philosophical, ethical, and cross-cultural groups about frontier AI. The work focuses on moral formation, Claude’s constitution, and what kind of character an AI system should exhibit under pressure. The company also describes an early experiment where Claude could call an ethical reminder tool during tasks, which reduced misaligned behavior in several internal evaluations.
Trump loses more control over AI regulation as Illinois passes landmark law★ 74
Ars Technica AI17 days agoRegulationIllinois lawmakers passed a landmark AI accountability bill requiring major frontier AI developers to publish safety frameworks, assess catastrophic risks, report incidents, and undergo third-party audits. OpenAI and Anthropic supported the measure, while industry groups warned that state-level rules could impose subjective compliance duties without national standards. The bill signals that states are continuing to fill the federal AI regulation gap despite Trump’s efforts to limit fragmented state oversight.
