We’re running another round of the Anthropic Fellows program. If you're an engineer or researcher with a strong coding or technical background, you can apply to receive funding, compute, and mentorship from Anthropic, beginning this October. There'll be around 32 places.

New Anthropic research: Persona vectors. Language models sometimes go haywire and slip into weird and unsettling personas. Why? In a new paper, we find β€œpersona vectors"β€”neural activity patterns controlling traits like evil, sycophancy, or hallucination.

Just finished compiling eight papers into my PhD thesis with Claude’s help. I feel lucky compared to the many PhDs who graduated before me. I am also extremely jealous of the many PhDs who will graduate after me.

It’s interesting how much the sentiment around LLM shifts weekly. A few weeks ago everyone was all about how great IMO gold medals were. Last week was about how we are hitting diminishing returns. Back again this week, the models are winning IOI and by a significant margin. We

We launched a Claude Code learning mode! Claude Code not only makes you more productive, but can now also help you get better at coding. Whether you're a CS student or seasoned programmer, it will push you to think deeper about the code you're generating.

It was amazing to be a core contributor to this Gold-winning ICPC effort. First the IMO, and two months later ICPC! The reasoning capabilities of foundation models continue to grow at breakneck speed and I can't wait to see what they do next.

Tinker provides an abstraction layer that is the right one for post-training R&D -- it's the infrastructure I've always wanted. I'm excited to see what people build with it. "Civilization advances by extending the number of important operations which we can perform without
