Anthropic, which is called a rival to OpenAI since it started its business after leaving the company
Anthropic, a company known for its advancements in artificial intelligence, recently unveiled its latest AI model named "Claude 3.5 Sonnet" on the 20th. This new model, according to the company, is twice as fast as its predecessor, the Claude 3 Opus, and excels in vision-related tasks such as chart and graph interpretation. Anthropik claims that the 3.5 Sonnet surpasses OpenAI's GPT-4o in various evaluation criteria, including graduate-level reasoning ability, code processing, and multilingual math.
During a multimodal task assessment, the Claude 3.5 Sonnet outperformed GPT-4o in chart comprehension and document comprehension, scoring 90.8% and 95.2% respectively, compared to GPT-4o's 85.7% and 92.8%. A demo video released by Anthropic showcased the model's capabilities by creating an 8-bit-style arcade game featuring crabs and clams on the beach.
Upcoming Features
Anthropic also announced the upcoming launch of an "Artifacts" function that will facilitate real-time collaboration among multiple users based on coding, documents, and content generated by the Claude Chatbot. The company has made the Claude 3.5 Sonnet available for free up to a certain usage limit, with expanded capabilities for Euro subscribers.
Danniella Ahmeday, the co-founder and president of Anthropic, shared her confidence in the Claude 3.5 Sonnet, stating, "According to our evaluation, the Claude 3.5 Sonnet is the smartest model in the industry." Anthropic, established in 2021 by siblings Danniella and Dario Ahmeday, was created following their departure from Open AI's founder group.
Investment and Support
Last year, Google and Amazon collectively raised $7.3 billion for Anthropic through five rounds of funding, with individual investments of $2 billion and $4 billion, respectively. Additionally, South Korea's SK Telecom and LG Technology Ventures have also shown support for the company.
