AI Safety

What AI providers state their models reached in safety testing, in their own words, and what outside testers found.

What providers state

Each row is one statement in a provider's own safety document about a capability level of one of its models: the level as the provider names it, whether the provider says the model reached it, and the sentence that says so.
