Dario Amodei published "We Must Pace the Frontier" on 12 September. Sam Altman agreed the same day. Elon Musk said "Dario is right." Between 21 and 24 September, Grok 4.7, Claude Opus 5.5, GPT-6 Sol and Luna and Qwen Audio 3.1 all landed with cuts of 20% to 95%. Both things are true, and the reason why matters.

Anthropic ran roughly 950 Claude agents for 21 hours across 210 million tokens, narrowing 200,000 reverse transcriptases to 3,500 candidates and then to 20. The result is a novel enzyme system in bacteriophages that Anthropic named ART. Wet-lab work confirmed it is real. Its function is still unknown, and Anthropic says so plainly.

Claude Code, Codex, GitHub Copilot and Gemini CLI all pin plugins to a reviewed commit, and all four check that commit out without verifying the checkout landed there. On platforms that allow a branch named after a commit hash, an attacker swaps the code while the pin still looks intact. Two are patched. Two are not.

An engineering post on containing capable agents across claude.ai, Claude Code and Cowork as autonomy increases. The useful part is the framing — not preventing failure, but limiting how far a failure reaches. That is the opposite of how most teams approach it.

Sony Music Publishing and Warner Chappell filed a 48-page complaint in Northern California naming Anthropic, Dario Amodei and Benjamin Mann.
