What happened

Baoyu reports that METR’s November 5 report estimated Anthropic improved model capabilities on well-defined tasks roughly twice as fast through October 2026 as from March 2024 to October 2025. METR says the estimate is highly uncertain. The report was based on internal Anthropic information.

METR 独立评估:Anthropic 模型能力的进步速度大约翻了一倍,大部分可能要归功于 AI 参与研发

AI 安全评估机构 METR 11 月 5 日发布报告,判断截至 2026 年 10 月,Anthropic 在“目标明确的任务”上提升模型能力的速度,大约是 2024 年 3 月到 2025 年 10 月的 2 倍。METR 说这个判断很不确定,实际是 https://t.co/MplE4LwHA8

Since August, a team within METR has worked with internal Anthropic information to assess whether AI itself is accelerating AI development. We are now publishing a report summarizing the results of this risk assessment.

The story so far

METR published a risk assessment estimating that Anthropic improved model capabilities on well-defined tasks roughly twice as fast through October 2026 as it did from March 2024 to October 2025. METR based the assessment on internal information from Anthropic and said the estimate is highly uncertain.
