A strong person to follow for how Anthropic moved from assistant training into more explicit evaluation work around model behavior, red-teaming, and chain-of-thought faithfulness.
Researcher Profile
Editor reviewedSaurav Kadavath
Alignment via AI feedback (Constitutional AI)
Alignment and reasoning researcher at Anthropic
A good person to follow for the part of alignment work that becomes concrete measurement: model-written tests, chain-of-thought faithfulness, and behavior-shaping methods that can actually be audited.

Worth following for the evaluation side of Anthropic’s alignment program, especially where model-written tests and public-input methods become practical tooling rather than just ideas.
Useful for the attack-and-evaluation side of alignment work, especially long-context jailbreak research and the measurement work that turns safety concerns into concrete tests.
Worth tracking for the newer evaluation thread at Anthropic, especially where failure-mode discovery and faithfulness measurement extend beyond the original RLHF papers.
A useful page for the more evaluation-heavy side of Anthropic’s alignment program, especially where constitutional methods, model-written evals, and faithfulness checks start to connect.
A high-signal person to follow for the part of alignment research that asks whether a model’s stated reasoning can actually be trusted and measured.
