Use Claude to solve a decades-old cryptography mystery
Anthropic's red team had Claude dig into the long-standing question of where the seeds behind NIST's ECDSA elliptic curves came from. The answer: "It's just timestamps," closing years of speculation about the standard.
Have Claude design better quantum circuits against an automatic scorer
Anthropic gave Claude plain-language specs for eight quantum circuits from chemistry, optimization, physics and number theory plus an evaluator that checks and scores each design. Working largely on its own, Claude beat the best published circuits, in some cases by an order of magnitude or more.
Make your AI check every citation against Crossref, PubMed and OpenAlex
After catching fake references in answers that looked perfect, a builder made a connector that makes the AI verify every reference against Crossref, PubMed and OpenAlex before showing it, and flag retracted papers.
Turn a few YouTube screenshots into a full hardware design package with Claude
He gave Claude some instructions and a few YouTube screenshots, and it produced a complete design: a full CAD model with STEP files from McMaster parts, 2D drawings, work instructions, firmware, a bill of materials and quotes.
