The premise that does the most work is representativeness. The evidence covers a few in-house tasks, its human references are time-capped, and the scores are Anthropic's own and not independently replicated.",

It does not show that humans would win: time caps and limited task coverage weaken the case for the claim without making the denial likely. Its force against current models is limited because the observed margins are large, and because RE-Bench's finding that humans improve faster over time concerned 2024-era agents.",
