Claude Opus 4.6
Claude Opus 4.6 is a frontier AI model from Anthropic with a 1M-token context window that has demonstrated advanced autonomous coding capabilities. Recent benchmarks show the model successfully reimplemented a 16,000-line bioinformatics program from only its command-line interface and test cases, a task estimated to require 2-17 weeks of human work, though it performed below human-level performance when autonomously fine-tuning other models for new tasks.
