Jeff Ladish says he has very little confidence in Anthropic's plans around recursive self-improvement, or that they'd ever actually stop. He contrasts this with OpenAI's claim of having paused an RL run for at least a few weeks, asking whether Anthropic has or would ever do the same — and how anyone would know. He adds that Anthropic's risk report and system cards do contain plenty of good material.
