None of the labs are blameless. For instance, after the recent announcement of a 2-week frontier RL pause from OpenAI, Anthropic declined to communicate a substantial parallel pause [1], although they discussed also briefly pausing some "high-risk" runs.

Anthropic has been the most vocal about AI risks, but it feels like all the big 3 have bought into the "others will do it if we don't do it first" narrative at this point. It increasingly gives "just following orders" vibes.
