The choice of Accenture surprised many AI watchers — and the markets, where the consultant company’s shares shot up 8% after hours.
Anthropic said more evaluators will be announced in the weeks ahead and that it is in conversation with METR and other non-profit organizations about how to “pilot elements of embedded evaluation using their own funding.”

The article, shortened and in plain language
Dario Amodei’s plans to put third-party safety evaluators inside AI labs are taking shape: Anthropic said that staff from technology consulting giant Accenture will begin working inside the company to scrutinize its models and staff.
In a blog post, Anthropic said that Faculty, a company Accenture acquired in January to act as its AI division, will begin “evaluating and red-teaming models, conducting alignment assessments, and testing model safeguards.”
The choice of Accenture surprised many AI watchers — and the markets, where the consultant company’s shares shot up 8% after hours. The discussion around embedded evaluators that sprang from Amodei’s blog post has focused on AI safety research organizations like METR, Redwood Research, and Apollo Research.
Anthropic said more evaluators will be announced in the weeks ahead and that it is in conversation with METR and other non-profit organizations about how to “pilot elements of embedded evaluation using their own funding.”
