Anthropic says the evaluators will get access similar to what its employees have. They will test safeguards and check whether models behave as intended.
Anthropic will pay Accenture for the work. Anthropic says the industry has no common standards for evaluator access, reporting, or funding. Calling an evaluator "independent" does not tell us who controls its access or whether it can publish what it finds.
The partnership is non-exclusive, and Anthropic says it will name more evaluators. Watch how much access they get, whether they can report freely, and what findings they publish. Those details will show how much outside scrutiny Anthropic permits.
