State of AI Report 2026: 244 slides in its 9th edition

Nathan Benaich's State of AI Report turns 9 with 244 slides, a scorecard on last year's predictions and 9 new ones including AGI 2027. Its theme is recursive self-improvement: Claude now guides about 26% of research directions in Anthropic's core model R&D, and Ramp data shows about $12 per employee per month on average versus about $7,500 for the top 1% (580x).
