## Study Finds AI Boost
Anthropic's AI models improve nearly twice as fast with AI assistance, per METR study.

> As of October 2026, Anthropic is likely improving the capabilities of their models on well-specified tasks at around twice the rate they did between March 2024 and October 2025
## Acceleration Rate
METR reports Anthropic's benchmark capabilities improved 1.9 times faster since October 2025 than previously.

> This estimate is given with high uncertainty, we would not be surprised if the true acceleration was closer to 1.5 or 2.5 the historical rate
## AI's Role in Development
AI helps Anthropic write code and conduct experiments, though METR warns figures are unreliable.

> Anthropic researchers have reported sharp productivity gains from using AI to write code and conduct experiments
## Recursive Self-Improvement Risk
AI could become self-improving without human intervention, raising existential threat concerns.

> The prospect of recursive self-improvement has fueled warnings from AI researchers that such systems could become difficult to align with human goals
## Key takeaway

Anthropic's AI models improved 1.9 times faster since October 2025 with AI assistance, per METR study.
