Why do they have cancer research listed on these charts as a misalignment issue?


I wondered the same thing. Apparently it’s about the likelihood of it trying to sabotage cancer research. Search for “sabotage” here (mentioned more often than “cancer”): https://alignment.anthropic.com/2026/teaching-claude-why/


Cured patients don't count as recurring revenue? /s (but we know deep down it's not /s for some)


The chart is complete and utter slop. But I guess their aligned AI didn't tell them that making up data is "not good" so how could they have known.
