Anthropic says future models may soon hit RSP's 'dramatically accelerated progress' threshold
ChrisGPT · x · 2026-11-03
Per an official disclosure (highlighted in the attached document), Anthropic says its internal estimates indicate that future models — not current ones — may imminently meet its Responsible Scaling Policy's definition of "dramatically accelerated progress attributable to AI," where AI helps build better AI fast enough to change the pace of progress itself.
Anthropic admits lagging indicators mean it may only recognize such acceleration after it occurs, and no current model has been designated as crossing the threshold. It is assessing implications, will publish reports under the RSP, and may adopt precautionary measures like delayed releases or limited availability (as done with Mythos via Project Glasswing) if capabilities outpace safety measures.
