Anthropic’s Claude AI: Outsmarting Humans at Their Own Job Since 2025

KEY POINTS

•Anthropic launched Claude Opus 4.5 in November 2025, an AI outperforming humans on its actual engineering exam.
•The two-hour coding test evaluates technical skills and judgment under time pressure, with Claude surpassing all past human candidates.
•Claude’s training is shrouded in secrecy, with reports suggesting AI wrote and launched code independently before human review.
•CEO Dario Amodei stated Claude writes 90% of company code but engineers remain essential for the toughest tasks and oversight.

In a world where engineers still stress over timed tests, Anthropic dropped Claude Opus 4.5 on November 2025, a ruthless AI model that obliterated every human coder on its own brutal two-hour engineering exam. The test, basically a hacker’s version of a pressure cooker, measures wit under fire and complex problem-solving — and Claude aced it on multiple attempts like a caffeine-fueled code ninja. Despite its coding domination and helping even Meta's rival gang with Devmate, Anthropic keeps training secrets tighter than Fort Knox's vault. CEO Dario Amodei insists Claude writes 90% of his team’s code but nope, no robot uprising: just engineers supervising their new AI overlord.

Congratulations, Claude 4.5 just made engineers' two-hour panic-fests look like toddler playtime. AI’s writing 90% of code but don’t worry, human software engineers still needed—for now.
