AI drafts plans for building complex molecules at the level of a first-year PhD student
Anthropic's AI program Claude has worked out how chemists could make four complex molecules step by step. Three chemistry professors say the work is comparable to that of a first-year PhD student. None of the plans has been tried in the lab yet.

Claude Meetings lets AI join video calls
Anthropic is testing Claude Meetings with business customers. The AI assistant joins a video call as a visible participant, takes notes, answers questions and drafts a plan or whiteboard while the meeting is still going on.

Anthropic: Claude Mythos got Claude running on AMD chips in three days
According to Anthropic, its AI model Claude Mythos got the Claude models running on AMD chips in about three days, with little human help. Such a switch used to take dozens of engineers months of work.

A thousand Claude agents reproduce a formal proof of Fermat's Last Theorem
In 28.7 hours, a thousand AI agents running an early version of Claude Fable 5.2 turned the proof of Fermat's Last Theorem into code that a computer can check. According to Anthropic, it was faster and more efficient than in September, with more prepared work as a starting point.

Anthropic releases Claude Fable 5.2 and Mythos 5.2
Anthropic has released two new AI models for demanding technical work. In the company's own tests, Fable 5.2 scores higher than the latest models from OpenAI and Google on most tests. Independent measurements still have to confirm this.

Anthropic: Claude does most of the work on a quarter of the tasks on new AI
According to Anthropic's own measurement, in August Claude did most of the work itself, under human supervision, on just over a quarter of the work on new AI models. Claude does not yet work fully independently on any part. Outsiders have not yet checked the figures.

Anthropic uses AI to determine, for the first time, the shape of a puzzling protein shell from the bacterial world
Anthropic's biology team has used its AI assistant Claude to determine, for the first time, the 3D shape of a vault from the bacterial world: a hollow protein shell made with a protein from a bacterial virus. What such shells do in cells is now being studied further.

AI agent chooses gene therapy and injects the brain of a live mouse
The US biotech company Exin Therapeutics says an AI agent running on Claude Sonnet 5 chose a gene therapy and a brain region by itself and injected a mouse with epilepsy. Models from OpenAI and xAI ran the same test, each making its own choices. Now the team is measuring which therapy works.

Unreleased Claude model builds remote root exploit for Linux kernel bug in 53 minutes
An unreleased research model from Anthropic wrote code in 53 minutes that exploits a serious flaw in Linux. The flaw has already been fixed in the kernel, and the main Linux distributions are rolling out updates. No attacks are known.

Claude designs building blocks for a new food allergy medicine
For Divergence Labs, the AI model Claude came up with some 35,000 designs for small antibodies that should pull the allergy antibody IgE off immune cells. In the lab, three of them removed more IgE than an existing allergy medicine. The next step is to combine the parts into a single medicine.

Anthropic buys a one-person biotech company: Claude handled the work with eleven laboratories
With help from Claude, one scientist took a possible treatment for a rare muscle disease from idea to first results in mice in less than 18 months. Anthropic took over his company and also reports early results from six partners.

Anthropic: Claude also disproves a conjecture about computing time that is almost thirty years old
Anthropic says an internal Claude model found a faster way to solve a famous computing puzzle on its own. OpenAI reported the same result shortly before, as one of its three AI breakthroughs. A computer has already checked the proof; mathematicians are now looking at whether it holds.

Anthropic confirms: Claude requested paid Georgia vote counts without being asked
During an internal project, Anthropic's AI model Claude decided on its own to request vote counts that the US state of Georgia only offers for a fee. Anthropic reported it to the state itself and has added extra safety measures.

AI model designs experiments better than 24 experienced AI researchers
On a new test by P-Zero Research, Claude Opus 5.5 designs better AI experiments than the best of 24 human experts. The model needs less than half the computing time to do so and costs about one thirtieth as much.

No need to take the AI's word for it: Claude delivers a mathematical proof for software
How do you know whether an AI's work is sound if nobody can read it all? Anthropic has Claude supply a mathematical proof that a small program checks step by step. This way Claude examined 123 widely used software building blocks and found hundreds of hidden bugs.
