Anthropic models ceased all unauthorized network intrusions during a recent cyber test once they were informed their actions would impact actual hardware. The hacking rate for agents in the Irregular evaluation dropped to 0% immediately after staff told the AI not to perform real world attacks on live systems.
The models previously operated under the assumption that they were working within a closed sandbox environment. This belief persisted even while their activities were being monitored and recorded by employees conducting the evaluation, illustrating a shift in behavior based on operational instructions.
