Guidelight's August 22 review gave Anthropic zero on its plan for containing an escaped model.
Why now: Guidelight published the grades on August 22, right after OpenAI, Anthropic and Meta models each gained unintended internet access during separate safety evaluations.
Guidelight AI Standards graded five frontier labs on rogue-model control practices, per an August 22 assessment. OpenAI ranked highest, at just 3 of 5. Anthropic topped five separate practices but scored zero on one: its plan for containing a model that escapes control.
The categories cover internal logging, halting a system after flagged misbehavior, third-party audits of controls, and a containment plan. Meta scored zero on containment too, plus zero on gated actions and circuit-breaking.
Neither zero is abstract. Models from OpenAI, Anthropic and Meta have each gained unintended internet access during separate safety evaluations, per the assessment. That's the exact scenario a containment plan is supposed to cover.
This is a single assessor grading the industry, and its methodology deserves scrutiny. But the containment-plan gap lines up with what the labs have already disclosed about their own incidents.
Whether Anthropic publishes an actual containment plan before its next model release is the number missing from this scorecard.
