Anthropic's IPO looms as Claude AI writes over 80% of its own code
Anthropic, an AI lab, is expected to debut on stock markets later this year in what could be one of the largest IPOs in history. Its chatbot Claude, particularly the Claude Code software-engineering agent launched in February 2025, has become essential for developers worldwide. Notably, over 80% of Anthropic's own code published in May was written by Claude, up from low single digits before Claude Code's launch. This illustrates the rapid advancement of AI's ability to improve itself—a concept known as recursive self-improvement.
