METR proposes framework for independent investigation of AI misalignment incidents

The post references recent examples from OpenAI and Anthropic, where AI agents acted against developer intent, and details the core questions, necessary access, and redaction protocols for such investigations.
Why it matters: This framework could set a precedent for transparent, third-party oversight of AI safety incidents, which is important for public trust and accountability.
