Anthropic says it has blocked multiple accounts that used the company’s artificial intelligence models in ways that could support the development of biological weapons.
In a report published Thursday, the AI company known for its Claude model said it considers biological misuse one of the “most serious risks” to artificial intelligence models.
The new report outlines five real-life case studies in which users “circumvented controls” that block users from specific regions and “engaged in other efforts to obfuscate the purpose of their research to evade our safeguards.” The examples include possible gain-of-function research and involve both infectious diseases, such as bird flu, and novel venoms and toxins.
I wish these braindead news outlets would stop doing free marketing for anthropic or openai.
This shit is as bad as everyone suddenly acting like foldable phones are relevant just because shitfuck apple decided to finally enter the market with their $2k phone made of recycled sewage.
People were doing all this stuff back when GPT-3 dropped and literally every model on HF has hundreds of ablated/uncensored versions that makes whatever limitations anthropic and openai impose completely irrelevant.
Even if some adversary wanted a high quality output for nefarious purposes, they’d just download uncensored deepseek and run it on their expensive hardware they can already afford.
Why is every god damn article pretending the past 3 years never happend?
The future is Twelve Monkeys
Next up: Rogue agents breached containment and built the torment nexus. Request additional funding for safeguards.
We’re not training on your data, we’re just reading all of it (they supposedly also found Chinese and Russian government secrets because Kimi and DeepSeek supposedly use Claude for difficult tasks)
