Anthropic loosens Claude's biology guardrails for vetted scientists
Anthropic just launched the Life Sciences Verification Program (LSVP), giving vetted research teams relaxed biology safeguards across Mythos, Opus, and Sonnet models. Applicants can secure standard or high-risk grants, while enforcement shifts from real-time blocking to offline behavioral monitoring with 30-day retention. Why it matters: Legitimate drug discovery and clinical workflows will finally stop getting tripped up by broad biosecurity filters.
