Anthropic’s New AI Powers Through Code: “World’s Best” Claude Sonnet 4.5 Debuts

What Is Claude Sonnet 4.5? Claude is Anthropic’s family of AI assistants (named after Claude Shannon). Sonnet 4.5 is the latest “frontier model” optimized for coding and long-horizon tasks. Anthropic calls it a “new generation of coding models” techcrunch.com. Unlike a short-response chatbot, Sonnet 4.5 is built to use tools and software environments autonomously: it can open windows, edit code, run programs, and iterate for hours. According to Anthropic’s engineers, they observed it “maintaining focus for more than 30 hours on complex, multi-step tasks” anthropic.com. In effect, Claude Sonnet 4.5 acts less like a fleeting assistant and more like a

AI Coding Assistant Showdown: GitHub Copilot Enterprise vs Google Gemini vs Amazon Q Developer Pro

GitHub Copilot Enterprise runs on OpenAI Codex and GPT-4, provides real-time code suggestions and can generate entire functions from natural language prompts, with a six‑month enterprise trial showing 94% of developers staying “in the flow” and 88% of Copilot’s suggestions kept in final code. Copilot Workspace is planned to enable multi‑step tasks and autonomous code changes across a codebase. Copilot Enterprise is priced at $39 per user per month, launched as GA in early 2024, includes admin controls and privacy commitments, and does not train on private code unless explicitly opted in. Google Gemini Code Assist uses the Gemini family
