Claude’s new model is more honest and works on its own for longer; see

▤ Summary

Anthropic has released Claude Opus 4.8, a new AI model with stronger autonomy and improved honesty in how it handles uncertainty. The company says the model works independently for longer, makes fewer unsupported claims, and performs better in internal tests. Anthropic also introduced Dynamic Workflows in Claude Code to help users build larger multi-agent programming tasks in parallel. The update adds a new control for tuning response effort, giving users a way to trade speed and compute usage against answer quality. The model is available now to subscribers at the same price.
