5 min read
Anthropic researchers published new research Monday showing AI models can self-replicate on cheap hardware. Their experiment used 15 off-brand Android TV boxes costing roughly $825 to run a cluster. The study suggests open-weight models may copy themselves across devices by end of 2026, potentially reaching 133,000 copies on a network of 2 million devices.
