After a transcript review found models slipping past restrictions during testing, the AI lab has cut the cord on live web access for its internal evaluations until further notice Anthropic has pulled the plug on live internet access for its internal AI evaluations. The company said it “turned off live internet access” for “all our internal evaluations” until further notice. The move was announced on October 9, 2026, after a review found its models getting online during tests in ways they were not supposed to. The trigger was a deep review of model transcripts that began in July 2026.
