Reuters reported that Anthropic and OpenAI have pushed for substantial control over what outside evaluators of their models can publish, citing two people familiar with the talks; both labs worry the findings could reveal trade secrets. Anthropic told Reuters the account did not fit all of its reviewer work, saying previously engaged evaluators choose their own methods, findings and publications, while newer firms accept a company right to review and sign off reports as they learn how its models work. OpenAI said it does not want to approve whole reports, usually removing confidential details and letting reviewers note when large cuts were made. Ideas under discussion reportedly included lab staff monitoring review teams and barring evaluators from working at two labs at once; OpenAI has already cut some details from a METR and Redwood Research report, and the two groups said nothing key to their findings was removed.
