Grady Booch slams Anthropic for tolerating up to 50 deaths and $1B damages per model

Grady Booch amplified criticism of Anthropic's safety commitments, calling it "unacceptable" that the company effectively asks the government not to intervene until a model causes up to 50 deaths or $1 billion in damages. The critique, originally from @Rahll, targets the thresholds in Anthropic's Responsible Scaling framework, framing them as treating catastrophic harm as a cost of doing business — a notable flashpoint in the ongoing debate over how strict frontier AI safety rules should be.
