  The ANAIS experiment is intended to search for dark matter annual modulation
with ultrapure NaI(Tl) scintillators in order to provide a model independent
confirmation or refutation of the long-standing DAMA/LIBRA positive annual
modulation signal in the low energy detection rate, using the same target and
technique. Other experiments exclude the region of parameters singled out by
DAMA/LIBRA. However, these experiments use different target materials, so the
comparison of their results depends on the models assumed for the dark matter
particle and its distribution in the galactic halo. ANAIS-112, consisting of
nine 12.5 kg NaI(Tl) modules produced by Alpha Spectra Inc., disposed in a
3$\times$3 matrix configuration, is taking data smoothly with excellent
performance at the Canfranc Underground Laboratory, Spain, since August, 2017.
Last published results corresponding to three-year exposure were compatible
with the absence of modulation and incompatible with DAMA/LIBRA for a
sensitivity above 2.5$\sigma$ C.L. Present status of the experiment and a
reanalysis of the first 3 years data using new filtering protocols based on
machine-learning techniques are reported. This reanalysis allows to improve the
sensitivity previously achieved for the DAMA/LIBRA signal. Updated sensitivity
prospects are also presented: with the improved filtering, testing the
DAMA/LIBRA signal at 5$\sigma$ will be within reach in 2025.
