Brundage: public AI beliefs update on incidents and narratives, not technical reports
Miles_Brundage · x · 2026-11-11
In a follow-up to his METR redactions thread, Miles Brundage says he supports public data on AI progress — OpenAI and Anthropic shared such info before the report, and independent groups like METR and Epoch do great work. But a no-redaction norm is unrealistic and ignores history: the general public has always updated on incidents, narratives and experience rather than technical data of interest to a few.
