Anthropic describes Claude self-assessment that flags possible misuse after responding

According to a post on X by @CtrlAltDwayne, Anthropic has described a process it calls "self-assessment," in which Claude gives a preliminary safety assessment of a conversation right after responding. The post says this has surfaced misuse that Anthropic's other systems missed since June. The same post reads Anthropic's new safety posts as a sign a model release is near, but it labels that reading as speculation.
