SPEAKER_04 describes Anthropic’s environment-development progression as starting with coding, expanding to finance, and then extending to PowerPoint and other long-tail work-economy tasks.

“you know i think for the um latter like yes that's probably just the bet they're making like and it's very clear like the pattern of like where these environments are going over the last few years i mean like anthropic's lineage of environments is like a very clear example of this like you know firstly like we just focus on coding and like we're going to get really really good at that and then the task horizon that we've got from coding which is probably the lowest hanging fruit in terms like data available on the internet to create environments like their own internal”

“little stuff that they can turn into environments then we're going to generalize we're going to go up to finance next and like literally like just so much xl data and all that sort of stuff in the in the rl training and then you know it's powerpoints it's like this long tail of like the working economy and like that seemed to work really well and like all the other labs and thing even the open source labs have now realized that that was the correct thing”
