voluntary safety pledges cannot survive competitive pressure because unilateral commitments are structurally punished when competitors advance without equivalent constraints Conditional RSP structure, Kaplan quotes, $30B/$380B financials, METR frog-boiling warning

Exclusive: Anthropic Drops Flagship Safety Pledge

TIME exclusive on Anthropic overhauling its Responsible Scaling Policy. Original RSP: never train without advance safety guarantees. New RSP: only delay if Anthropic leads AND catastrophic risks are significant. Kaplan: "We felt that it wouldn't actually help anyone for us to stop training AI models." $30B raise, ~$380B valuation, 10x annual revenue growth. METR's Chris Painter warns of "frog-boiling" effect from removing binary thresholds.
