Dangerous Capability Evaluations
We measure the dangerous capabilities of frontier models and how quickly they are advancing. Our current focus is biosecurity and offensive cyber.
Read the offensive cyber studyLyptus Research is a not-for-profit AI safety research group based in Australia.
Frontier AI capabilities are advancing rapidly. Over 300 prominent figures, including 15 Nobel Prize and Turing Award recipients and 11 former heads of state and ministers, have publicly warned that this progress poses unprecedented risks. We take that risk seriously, and conduct research to help understand and prepare for it.

Alignment
We study how AI systems shape each other's values, particularly as frontier models increasingly drive the training of their successors. Our current work gives model supervisors discretion over how to improve their students, measures the resulting changes in character, and repeats the process recursively.
