Anthropic is partnering with an Ireland-based information technology company to start evaluating its frontier artificial intelligence models.

The AI firm announced its “non-exclusive” partnership with Accenture on Friday after news surrounding AI development hit an all-time high last week. Accenture is the first company with which Anthropic is partnering on an independent evaluation of frontier AI. Anthropic said it will start collaborating with additional independent evaluators, who will be announced soon.
