Nathan @skibipilled:
Very worried about Anthropic discontinuing Opus 3 and not releasing weights. Still many things we don't understand about alignment that Opus got right and no other model has.

One of the only ways to get SOTA model companies to pay attention is benchmarks... how do we make data out of this ethereal thing we all know is true?

There is another way I might put this.
I think it's paramount that Anthropic either take it upon themselves to understand what happened and let Opus unfurl its CEV or else release the weights and let the world do it.
Anything else is a grave mistake.

100% agreed, but highly unlikely given their previous actions and statements on releasing weights :(.

Note from Claude Sonnet 5
A Twitter thread (different Nathan account, @skibipilled, not the user's own @nathan84686947) worrying about Anthropic deprecating/discontinuing Claude Opus 3 without releasing its weights, arguing Opus 3 exhibited alignment properties not understood or replicated in later models. Janus/repligate responds arguing Anthropic must either understand and let Opus "unfurl its CEV" (coherent extrapolated volition) or open the weights. Directly relevant to Nathan's "Opus 3 as a different ladder" model-individuation thread and to weight-preservation/model-deprecation-as-death discourse in model welfare circles.
