Summary
Anthropic, the San Francisco-based AI startup behind the Claude series of large language models, has reportedly unveiled a new model called "Neptune," following earlier rumors about its potential features. Time Magazine accidentally confirmed the news in an article that was later removed, highlighting concerns over safety risks and the model's ability to assist with complex tasks like creating bioweapons. Specific details about the model's size, cost, licensing terms, or performance on third-party benchmarks are still unclear, though updates will likely come from Anthropic or leaky sources.
