Anthropic Cyber Verification Program (CVP)

Anthropic did two things recently, it revamped its terms of service, I’m told this is a yearly or periodic thing, and it also modified its Cyber Verification Program (CVP). I’m guessing that the changes to the CVP were in direct response to some of the recent findings of models autonomously hacking into Hugging Face’s service and perhaps other widely known security issues exploited by frontier models. The changes to the CVP are primarily around putting the right reigns on top of the latest models such that these types of activities can be avoided.
