Anthropic is releasing its newest model, Claude 3.5 Sonnet, which it claims can equal or outperform OpenAI’s GPT-4o and Google’s Gemini across a wide range of tasks.
The updated model is already available to Claude users on the web and iOS, and Anthropic is releasing it to developers as well.
According to the blog, Claude 3.5 Sonnet “shows marked improvement in grasping nuance, humour, and complex instructions, and is exceptional at writing high-quality content with a natural, relatable tone”.
It claimed that Claude 3.5 Sonnet is twice as quick as its previous top model, Claude 3 Opus, while exceeding competitors. The AI challenger revealed Claude 3 in March.
Anthropic, created in 2021 by former OpenAI personnel, competes with Microsoft and Google in the increasingly competitive AI market.
Newsng understands that Anthropic is launching the updated model in addition to a brand-new feature named Artifacts.
You can now see and interact with the outcomes of your Claude requests with Artifacts.
For example, if you ask the model to design something, it can now show you what it looks like and allow you to alter it directly within the app.
If Claude sends you an email, you don’t need to copy it to a text editor; you can edit the email right there in the Claude app.
Mike Krieger, a former co-founder of Instagram and current chief technology officer, joined Anthropic in May as chief product officer to help promote the chatbot.
“Today’s launch of Claude 3.5 Sonnet in Amazon Bedrock delivers on Anthropic’s long-term commitment to provide AWS customers with access to future generations of its FMs via Amazon Bedrock, and this is Anthropic’s first release in its forthcoming Claude 3.5 model family,” Amazon wrote in a blog post.
We earlier reported that OpenAI, the leading artificial intelligence company, is reportedly considering transitioning from its current capped-profit structure to a full for-profit model.
