Anthropic is reportedly getting ready to release a new AI model within weeks. The Information has described Anthropic’s upcoming model as a “hybrid” that can shift between “deep reasoning” and quick, snappy responses via its large language model (LLM) whenever needed.
The tech news outlet reports that the new model will blend traditional language skills with advanced reasoning, manage coding tasks, and give developers more control over balancing speed and computing power. Reports suggest the company will roll out a “sliding scale” with the new model, letting developers manage costs since deep reasoning requires more computing power.
Anthropic's next Claude model is coming—and soon.
It'll be a combo of a traditional LLM + reasoning AI, w/ the ability for devs to adjust how much it reasons on a sliding scale measured in tokens.

At its maximum reasoning level, the model is said to excel in real-world programming tasks and easily manage large-scale codebases. There has been speculation that Anthropic already has an internal model surpassing OpenAI’s o3, but it hasn’t been released yet due to safety concerns.
Anthropic attempts to expedite AI reasoning model
While Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei didn’t unveil a new model at this week’s global AI summit in Paris, he did hint at some of these releases. Speaking to TechCrunch, Amodei said: “We’re generally focused on trying to make our own take on reasoning models that are better differentiated.
“We’ve been a little bit puzzled by the idea that there are normal models and there are reasoning models and that they’re sort of different from each other.
“We think that these should exist as part of one single continuous entity. And we may not be there yet, but Anthropic really wants to move things in that direction.”
The timing lines up with OpenAI’s recent announcement that GPT-5 is coming in the next few months as a “system” that merges the reasoning power of their o-models with standard language functions. Instead of launching the o3 reasoning model separately, OpenAI has chosen to integrate it directly.
