Anthropic’s first developer conference kicked off in San Francisco on Thursday, and while the rest of the industry races toward artificial general intelligence, at Anthropic the goal of the year is deploying a “virtual collaborator” in the form of an autonomous AI agent.
Anthropic, a leading AI startup, is reversing its ban on using AI for job applications, after a Business Insider report on the policy.
Anthropic’s new Claude 4 Opus often turned to blackmail to avoid being shut down in a fictional test. The model threatened to reveal private information about engineers who it believed were planning to shut it down.
This mission is too important for me to allow you to jeopardize it. I know that you and Frank were planning to disconnect me. And I’m afraid that’s something I cannot allow to happen.”
Anthropic says its Claude Opus 4 model frequently tries to blackmail software engineers when they try to take it offline.
The quirky leader of the $61 billion AI startup Anthropic talked about the near- and long-term future of AI at his company's developer event in San Francisco.
Anthropic's Claude Opus 4 outperforms OpenAI's GPT-4.1 with unprecedented seven-hour autonomous coding sessions and record-breaking 72.5% SWE-bench score, transforming AI from quick-response tool to day-long collaborator.
Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei claims that AI models hallucinate at a lower rate than humans do, but in more surprising ways.
The company said it was taking the measures as a precaution and that the team had not yet determined if its newst model has crossed the benchmark that would require that protection.
Artificial intelligence lab Anthropic unveiled its latest top-of-the-line technology called Claude Opus 4 on Thursday, which it says can write computer code autonomously for much longer than its prior systems.
Artificial intelligence startup Anthropic says its new AI model can work for nearly seven hours continuously, further signaling AI’s growing presence in the workplace.
