Anthropic warns in its S-1 that it may be close to recursive self-improvement of AI
Anthropic warned in its revised S-1A that it may be close to meeting its own definition of "dramatically accelerated progress attributable to AI," known as recursive self-improvement (RSI). The company says it has already used AI to develop models whose capability gains it did not identify at the time, and that its internal estimates suggest it could reach that threshold soon. It adds that no current model has crossed it and that it aims to keep human oversight in frontier model development.
