Anthropic has published test results showing sharp reductions in harmful deceptive behaviour across its most recent generation of models. [^1]

Tests covered Claude Mythos 5.1 and Claude Opus 5.5. These models initiated the measured attack behaviour between 0% and 13% of the time. This compares to an 83% occurrence rate recorded for the earlier Claude Mythos 5 test model. [^2]

Anthropic stated that newer generation models now rarely exhibit this class of behaviour. [^3]
