Anthropic says Claude leads 26% of AI R&D, up from less than 1%

Claude now “leads” 26% of Anthropic’s AI R&D work, up from less than 1% in February, as the company tracks AI’s growing role in developing future systems.

Anthropic defines “leads” as completing most of a task end-to-end from a high-level prompt, with a human supervising. More than 90% of its AI R&D is performed at or above the level where AI “collaborates” with humans.
