What happened

Well supportedReported by 21 independent outlets

An independent monitoring group found that Anthropic is developing its artificial intelligence systems about twice as quickly as a year ago, according to an analysis released on November 6, 2026. During this period, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei called for the AI industry to slow its pace of improvement so safety measures can catch up. Anthropic is also preparing for its Wall Street debut later this month.
