Anthropic slammed for using business partner Accenture as "independent" evaluator
Hesamation · x · 2026-09-19
The author criticizes Anthropic's embodied evaluation: the supposedly "independent" evaluator is Accenture, a major enterprise partner with an "Accenture Anthropic Business Group," joint products, and investments.
The core argument: for embodied evaluation to mean anything, evaluators must have no financial or business ties to the labs they assess — otherwise it is just a marketing campaign.
