METR reports that its 100-page evaluation report to Anthropic came back with "a majority of the evidence METR found most informative" redacted. Anthropic's stated reason: the evidence could help accelerate other developers and thus harm safety.

The author adds that METR referencing an unredacted report's existence matters: it gives government bodies something concrete to request from developers, even when sharing isn't legally required.
