Sholto introduces Claude Opus 4.5 as Anthropic’s top model
- SPSpeaker
Hey, I'm Sholto. I'm an engineer and researcher here at Anthropic. Claude Opus 4.5 is our best model yet. It's

Reliability and intuition: “it just gets it”
- SPSpeaker
the best in the world at coding, agentic tasks, and everyday work like spreadsheets. What's harder to show is how it just gets it.

Fewer interventions: longer autonomous runs on tasks
- SPSpeaker
I trust this model more. My time between interventions keeps getting longer, and I keep seeing colleagues say it solved a bug that

Efficiency via deliberation: knowing when to think before acting
- SPSpeaker
Sonnet never could have found. The model is also more efficient because it knows when to think before acting so that it makes the right change.

Benchmark highlight: top score on a two-hour take-home engineering task
- SPSpeaker
We've got this take-home. It's a two-hour intensive engineering task, and in that time,

Improved frontend and vision for better computer use
- SPSpeaker
the model scored higher than any human ever has. It's also much better at front end, it's way better at vision, and that makes it a lot better at using computers. Opus 4.5 is available today. For the first time, it's on every major cloud platform. Let us know what you think. [outro music]
