Using public benchmarks and previously unreported data from within Anthropic, The Anthropic Institute is showing that AI is already accelerating the development of AI systems. To take just one example: today, Anthropic engineers on average ship 8x as much code per quarter as they did from 2021-2025.

Yup. Lines of code as a metric is pure bait for investors.

I can make a function that does the same thing in 8 lines of code that another function does in 8 lines. More often then not less is more with code. It's more efficient, easier to audit and has a smaller attack surface. So yeah bullshit metric indeed
