Anthropic has launched a Responsible Scaling Policy (RSP) to manage risks linked with advanced AI systems. The policy introduces AI Safety Levels (ASL), akin to U.S. biosafety levels, to structure safety measures corresponding to AI risk potential. Lower levels apply to non-catastrophic models, whereas higher levels like ASL-3 require stringent protocols to prevent misuse. The RSP aims to balance risk mitigation with innovation, pausing developments if safety can't be ensured. It encourages rigorous pre-market testing and commits to adjustments as AI evolves. This initiative, shaped by ARC Evals, highlights Anthropic's dedication to responsible AI deployment.
