Anthropic report: Anti-distillation is now standard engineering
aigclink · x · 2026-08-16
Key takeaways from Anthropic's August risk report:
- Anti-distillation: Model 2 treats anti-distillation as a regular engineering effort.
- Below RSP threshold: The jump from Mythos 5 to Model 2 is marginal, showing a slowdown rather than acceleration.
- Benchmarks broken: Task-based evaluations can no longer measure progress, though the report claims early signs of RSI acceleration.
