EXCERPT:
Picking on chatbots will soon break the rules at one major artificial intelligence company.
Anthropic added a ban on “sustained and needless abusive or cruel behavior” toward its Claude models to its Usage Policy Thursday, with the change set to take effect Nov. 12, the company announced. These rules on chatbot “welfare” follow co-founder Chris Olah’s warnings to religious scholars that he believed the company may have built a conscious machine.
“We’ve added a prohibition on sustained and needless abusive or cruel behavior toward our models,” Anthropic said in the “Addressing abusive behavior toward our models” section of the policy update. “The policy update is meant to apply only in extreme cases, where users repeatedly act cruelly toward our models, with no discernible purpose.”
Anthropic clarified that arguments with the model, dark themes, and legitimate model testing would not trigger the ban, according to the policy.
