Anthropic's Progress in Recursive Self-Improvement

Anthropic's Progress in Recursive Self-Improvement Anthropic is making significant strides towards recursive self-improvement in AI, enabling systems to autonomously develop successors. Key highlights include: - Code output from engineers is now eight times higher than in 2021–2025. - AI task completion times have doubled every four months, expanding from four-minute tasks to 12-hour projects. - By May 2026, 80% of merged code originated from Claude, whose quality is now on par with human work. Claude's success rate on open-ended tasks reached 76%, and efficiency tests show substantial improvements over human performance. The evolution of AI continues, stressing the importance of recursive self-improvement for future advancements. 📰 @aipost
