Claude computes nine-loop amplitude in N=4 super-Yang-Mills
Editorial Analysis
Anthropic researchers using Claude Science and Fable 5.1 computed the previously unsolved nine-loop six-particle amplitude in planar N=4 super-Yang-Mills via bootstrap methods on modest compute. The result was independently verified by domain experts and demonstrates reliable one-shot frontier scientific calculation by current models without continuous human oversight.
