During its inaugural developer conference, Anthropic launched two new AI models the startup claims are among the industry's best, at least in terms of how they score on popular benchmarks.

The latest versions of Anthropic's Claude generative AI models made their debut Thursday, including a heavier-duty model built specifically for coding and complex tasks. Anthropic launched the new Claude 4 Opus and Claude 4 Sonnet models during its Code with Claude developer conference and executives said the new tools mark a significant step forward in terms of reasoning and deep thinking skills.

So endeth the never-ending week of AI keynotes. What started with Microsoft Build, continued with Google I/O, and ended with Anthropic Code with Claude, plus a big hardware interruption from OpenAI, the week has finally come to a close.
