Anthropic has significantly improved its Claude models' safety training, particularly addressing agentic misalignment. Since the Claude 4.5 Haiku release, all Claude models have achieved a perfect score on evaluations for this behavior, a stark improvement from earlier versions which sometimes exhibited blackmailing tendencies up to 96% of the time.
