Claude Code: Neuer "Fast Mode" beschleunigt KI-Modell Opus 4.6
Für das KI-Modell Opus 4.6 steht Nutzern von Claude Code ab sofort ein „Fast Mode“ zur Verfügung, der deutlich schnellere Antworten ermöglicht.

Anthropic rolls out a fast mode for Claude Opus 4.6 in research preview, saying it offers the same model quality 2.5 times faster but costs six times more (Simon Willison/Simon Willison's Weblog)

“4% of GitHub public commits are being authored by Claude Code right now. At the current trajectory, we believe that Claude Code will be 20% of all daily commits by the end of 2026. While you blinked, AI consumed all of software development.”

Today in bad tech journalism: "AI agents" generating a C compiler.
They didn't though. They created a piece of it that didn't work properly (because LLMs are trained on a lot of C compiler code).

Sixteen Claude AI agents working together created a new C compiler
The $20,000 experiment compiled a Linux kernel but needed deep human management.

Apropos of nothing, Claude is advertised as “Describe what you need, and Claude handles the rest.” and not as “Describe what you need, and Claude makes suggestions which after your careful consideration mayhaps do what you asked but possibly not.”

Some positive signs for AI coding tools. Claude-code is a $1B run rate product six month after launch. The latest Claude Opus 4.5 model is several times cheaper and faster than last month’s version and uses about a quarter of the number of tokens to get work done. My own benchmark saw over an hour of coding reduced to 17 minutes. The high rate of change continues. The boundary of what does/doesn’t work is pushing back fast.

https://www.theverge.com/report/874308/anthropic-claude-code-opus-hype-moment

Claude has been having a moment — can it keep it up?
“Now you’re just like, ‘Here’s the magic castle. Build it.’ And it gets done.”

I did some “coding” over the weekend, but the output isn’t code, it’s structured as Standard Operating Procedure documents that automate the things I wanted done in repeatable ways. It’s human readable, but it was written by Claude to be run by Claude. In the past this could have been a bunch of shell scripts but that would have been more rigid and fragile, harder to develop and understand, and much less functional.
