Anthropic gets zero of my money because their favorite word is no. I cannot figure out how to as an individual or a small startup request elevated permissions for the purposes of anything that they think might potentially be dangerous for someone who is not me to access. I have a background in cybersecurity. I have a background in life sciences. Can I put those skills to use to benefit humanity? Who knows.

I imagine the path forward for the labs will be signing off on organizations/institutions rather than individuals.

The risk/reward is way lopsided towards risk for the labs to vet individuals. Much easier to get an organization and have them take the blast if someone/something goes off the rails.

I cannot in any universe see the labs putting themselves in a "We should never had given this person access" situation.

		"No." Dario keeps saying in interviews that AI hacking is not a problem because "the good guys will protect themselves with AI", but then gate-keeps. I submitted the form and it was rejected without reason. Now what?

		Thank you for the link. It looks like I will have to pay them to be considered, and even so, it looks unlikely that I'll be approved, since I have no CVEs credited to me, and I do not publicly post about security concerns. ..........................................
