Miles Brundage criticizes a detail in METR's report: a project participant received a job offer from Anthropic midway through the evaluation — "bad and should not have happened," with someone clearly at fault. He argues some information shouldn't be published indiscriminately, and that COI policies and methodological transparency are what offset the limits of full transparency.
