Anthropic Says Its New AI Model Is Better at Coding and Office Work

Anthropic PBC is rolling out a new version of its most powerful artificial intelligence model that is designed to be better at automating coding and office tasks, part of an effort to compete with OpenAI and Alphabet Inc.’s Google for business customers. The new model, Claude Opus 4.5, is more capable than previous versions at software engineering work, like fixing bugs, without needing a user’s help, Anthropic said. Opus 4.5 is also intended to be better at carrying out complicated multistep tasks on a user’s computer and the internet.
