Today, Anthropic engineers on average ship 8x as much code per quarter as they did compared to 2021-2025.

Our internal data shows Claude is accelerating AI development—a possible path to recursive self-improvement, or AI autonomously building a more capable successor.

It’s happening faster than we thought, and the implications deserve greater attention. https://t.co/OVVPJO7VQx

ACCELERATING

So cool to see a single Claude Code instance loosely coordinating a performance optimization campaign with my ntm orchestration tool across 9 of my FrankenSuite projects at the same time. This involves 27 different full agent sessions! Two Codex and one Claude Code per project.

Aging is arguably the root cause of most major diseases (loss of function in our cells). Four years ago, we made a bet that aging was treatable, and NewLimit was born.

NewLimit now has a prototype drug that reverses the age of some human cells (restores function they had when they were younger), and a clinical trial scheduled for next year (with more drug candidates in the pipeline).

Grateful to Founders Fund, Thrive, Greenoaks, and the rest of the investors for this latest round. @jacobkimmel and the team are just getting started.

The only thing that stops violent men from raping you and your society are other men who are equally willing to be violent in stopping the rapists. The West has decided that the highest virtue is to quietly comply with the destruction of your civilization because to do otherwise is bigoted toward the rapists. It really is that simple.

I'm truly making the finest hedge fund investment research agent tooling in the universe here. Just incredible seeing it all come together.

You simply cannot do this kind of style factor aware ad-hoc screening with this kind of sophistication and performance anywhere else.

There is so much alpha in just religiously, repeatedly invoking these magic spells throughout your agent coding and planning sessions:

❯ Great, now I want you to carefully read over all of the new code you just wrote and other existing code you just modified with "fresh eyes" looking super carefully for any obvious bugs, errors, problems, issues, confusion, etc. Carefully fix anything you uncover.

❯ Once again, check over everything again with fresh eyes looking for any blunders, mistakes, errors, oversights, omissions, problems, misconceptions, bugs, etc. Be SUPER thorough and meticulous!

Maybe one day you won't need them, but for now, it improves the results from frontier models more dramatically than anything else you can do. Assign them to hotkeys or get a Stream Deck so you can sprinkle them in without even thinking about it.

Introducing Claude Opus 4.8: it builds on Opus 4.7 with sharper judgment, more honesty about its own progress, and the ability to work independently for longer than its predecessors.

Available today at the same price.

you could probably piece together some really sophisticated enterprise software by using your codex and (dare i say) claude code accounts, wrapping it in a frontend and calling agents on a vps...
