alt Hacker NewsAnthropic regularly publishes research papers on the subject and details different methods they use to prevent misalignment/jailbreaks/etc. And it's not even about fear of being sued, but needing to deliver some level of resilience and stability for real enterprise use cases. I think there's a pretty clear profit incentive for safer models.

Alternative take: this is all marketing. If you pretend really hard that you're worried about safety, it makes what you're selling seem more powerful.
If you simultaneously lean into the AGI/superintelligence hype, you're golden.
Not to be cynical about it BUT a few safety papers a year with proper support is totally within the capabilities of a single PhD student and it costs about 100-150k to fund them through a university. Not saying that’s what Anthropocene does, I’m just saying chump change for those companies.
