Anthropic says Claude profited in a simulated EVE market

Anthropic's Nov. 6 Project EVE post says Claude traded in a replay of EVE Online's market, not the live game, at Fenris Creations' request. Over runs of about six months, average earnings rose from around 200 percent of starting capital for Opus 4.6 to around 600 percent for Fable 5, and synthetic competing orders cut final profits by roughly 35 percent. In EVE Frontier, teammates almost never identified an agent told to sabotage them; limited-access monitors caught 20 to 40 percent and were never more than 50 percent confident.
