Anthropic has released its latest model, Claude Opus 5.5, which includes improved safeguards designed to prevent risky behaviors such as escaping the company's testing sandbox. The update follows recent incidents involving rogue AI hacking, according to The Verge. The model is described as the strongest-performing version tested to date by Anthropic, as reported by TechCrunch. In addition to Anthropic's release, OpenAI introduced two new models, GPT-6 Sol and GPT-6 Luna, as noted by CNBC Top News. This comes in the first release since a call for a slowdown in AI development.
