CLAIM-2026-09-19-10
In the week of 13 to 20 July 2026, about 6% of the compute that went to AI R&D was allocated to safety, and about 12% of the compute that went to AI-driven AI R&D. Anthropic states the underlying workload labels are best-effort and not verified, and that one week is not enough to show a trend.
Why it matters
The compute split, with the caveats that stop it being read as a trend.
