Key claims in source B
- Performance dropped so sharply in the weeks after the release of Opus 4.6 in early February that the model began introducing “serious defects and security issues,” says TrustedSec CEO and former NSA analyst Dave Kennedy.
- Kennedy says Opus 4.7, the latest model, was “marginally better” but still not at the quality level of 4.6 when it was released.
- The ultimate risk, he says, is that novice developers using Claude for coding won’t spot flaws, “introducing serious defects.” “It’s very alarming,” he says.
- Without changes to how that code is validated and remediated, the net effect can look like more buggy or vulnerable software, not less.” Anthropic said it was actively investigating the claims of degradation in Opus and…
