So far, we've been trying to do that by building the safeguards fast, but I think we've reached the point where, at least to some extent, we need to moderate a little bit the pace at which the technology is being built. Does that then mean that Anthropic is going to stop releasing more advanced models? It doesn't mean that. What it means is that we need to make sure that every generation of models that we release is properly tested. The thing I've proposed, so in this essay that I put out a few hours ago, I proposed a three-step plan, and the first step is that we put in place embedded evaluators, embedded external evaluators from a third-party nonprofit or perhaps someday government organization that can observe the process of us training.
