On August 12, 2026, Samsung Electronics announced the integration of Anthropic's sophisticated large language model, Claude, into its semiconductor research and development (R&D) processes. Fast forward approximately three months, and Samsung made its AI-driven programming tool, Claude Code, accessible to software developers, marking a significant leap in R&D efficiency. In the realm of customer-tailored SoC (System on Chip) verification tasks, what was once projected to be a month-long endeavor has now been condensed to a mere two days, resulting in an approximate 15-fold increase in work efficiency.
