Anthropic, an OpenAI rival, unveiled Claude 3.5 Sonnet, their most potent AI model to date, on Thursday.
Claude is one of the chatbots that has become quite popular in the last year, along with Google’s Gemini and OpenAI’s ChatGPT. Google, Salesforce, and Amazon are among the supporters of Anthropic, which was created by former OpenAI research executives. It has closed five financing arrangements worth a combined $7.3 billion in the last year.
The announcement comes after OpenAI’s GPT-4o in May and Anthropic’s Claude 3 family of models, which debuted in March. Claude 3.5 Sonnet, the first model in Anthropic’s new Claude 3.5 family, is faster than the business’s previous top model, Claude 3 Opus, according to the company.
The company’s Claude.ai website and the Claude iPhone app offer Claude 3.5 Sonnet for free. Higher rate limit models are available to subscribers of Claude Pro and Team.
In addition to creating excellent content in a conversational, natural tone, the system “shows marked improvement in grasping nuance, humor, and complex instructions,” according to a blog post from the business. Code can be written, edited, and run by it as well.
Anthropic also unveiled “Artifacts,” a feature that enables users to instruct its chatbot, Claude, to execute tasks like creating code or text documents, and then view the outcome in a separate window. Code development, business report authoring, and other tasks are anticipated to benefit from Artifacts, according to the company. “This creates a dynamic workspace where they can see, edit, and build upon Claude’s creations in real-time,” the statement continued.
As generative AI startups like Anthropic and OpenAI gain traction, they are competing with tech behemoths like Google, Amazon, Microsoft, and Meta in an arms race to incorporate AI technology and stay ahead of a market that is expected to generate $1 trillion in revenue over the course of the next ten years.
Anthropic debuted its first-ever enterprise product in May, and news of its new model followed.
Anthropic co-founder Daniela Amodei told CNBC last month that the plan for businesses, called Team, had been in development for the past few quarters and involved beta-testing with between 30 and 50 customers in industries like technology, financial services, legal services, and health care. According to Amodei, many of those same customers requested a specific corporate solution, which served as inspiration for the service’s concept.
At the time, Amodei remarked, “So much of what we were hearing from enterprise businesses was that people are kind of using Claude at the office already.”
Mike Krieger, co-founder of Instagram, joined Anthropic as chief product officer last month, not long after the business unveiled its new product. According to a release, Krieger, the former chief technological officer of Meta-owned Instagram, expanded the platform’s user base to 1 billion and boosted the number of engineers on staff to over 450. Jan Leike, a previous leader in safety at OpenAI, also joined the business in May.
