Background & analysis
On October 20, 2026, METR published a review of the "misalignment in high-risk scenarios" chapter of Anthropic's internal Risk Report from August 2026. METR said the review was written based solely on that internal Risk Report and is relatively lightweight. The reviewers noted that they were engaged before the "An update on independent evaluators" announcement and did not have the level of access to information described in that post; they added that they expect future engagements to be governed by different terms. On redaction, METR stated that Anthropic had the right to veto publication of the review and to redact any part of it. The public record currently stops at this review; the materials do not mention any response from Anthropic.
