    AA-Robotics benchmark has coding agents drive a real robot arm

    Artificial Analysis launched AA-Robotics v0.1, a benchmark in which language models in coding-agent harnesses control a Hiwonder NexArm robot arm. Models in Codex, Claude Code and Antigravity write code for 8 zero-shot tabletop tasks, watching through 4 cameras. GPT-6 Astra led with 69.4 and Claude Opus 5.5 scored 48.8. Models took about 30 minutes a task; people averaged 20 seconds.

    Project Fetch phase two: Claude Opus 4.7 in Claude Code writes the sensor code for a robot dog

    Anthropic repeated its robot-dog experiment with Claude Opus 4.7 in Claude Code, a researcher approving each command. On every task a 2025 human team had completed, including connecting to the camera and lidar, Claude was at least ten times faster. Anthropic says its attempts to knock the beach ball back were poorly controlled, and it never finished the autonomous fetch.
