Anthropic announced the launch of its Claude AI assistant in March 2023 , competing with OpenAI ’ s ChatGPT . According to the company , Claude can help with use cases such as summarisation , search , creative and collaborative writing , Q & A and coding . Early customers reported that Claude was much less likely to produce harmful outputs , easier to converse with and more steerable to the individual use case .
“ What we ’ ve heard from our users is that Claude comes across as friendly and warm ,” Amodei said . “ I tend to think of Claude as a very eager junior assistant , it ’ s a tool that really wants to help .”
In July 2023 , the company revised its model and introduced Claude 2 . The hope is that Claude can be more tailored to suit a wider range of business use cases , allowing companies to better enact their digital transformation strategies . Yet , ethical AI use must remain at the centre of these efforts .
“ We have aimed to make Claude as safe as possible . We have seen some improvements [ in Claude 2 ] from Claude 1 in terms of harmlessness and honesty and helpfulness ,” Amodei says .
With a continued commitment to AI responsibility and ethics , Amodei and Anthropic are at the heart of the future of AI . aimagazine . com 27
