Anthropic says Claude Mythos got Claude processing prompts on AMD's MI355X GPUs in about 3 days with almost no human help — a job that used to take dozens of engineers 6 to 12 months. Claude wrote or adapted nearly all the specialized GPU code needed. NVIDIA exec Anush Elangovan quoted it with "Speed is the moat."
