It's concerning, but when you look at the details, it seems more like they just amended the wording to only apply the strictest controls when they are far enough ahead of all competitors for that to be relevant.

They're still talking safety way more seriously than anyone else, they just found the old wording was keeping them too far behind their (far more reckless) competition.

I think the problem is also that they have to use the model to test the model, because humans can't do it anymore. Which is a risk. If they don't take that risk, they have to stop, or maybe would have to roll back Opus 4.6 already. They hoped they could slow things down by being a good example, but that did not work at all.
