Anthropic has raised eyebrows by announcing it will ban users from “sustained and needless” abusive behaviour towards its AI. The Claude-maker said on Thursday it was updating its usage policy to let its tools end interactions where people are “cruel” – something it said it had done in “rare” cases prior. It will now be included on a list of forbidden conduct which also contains bullying others, promoting self-harm and creating non-consensual intimate imagery.But what Anthropic would consider “abusive or cruel behaviour” towards its models remains unclear. What is your take on the move ?
