Anthropic, an AI large language model (LLM) startup founded by some former OpenAI team members, has announced its newest large language model family called Claude 3. Anthropic claims that Claude 3 outperforms OpenAI GPT-4 and Google Gemini 1.0 Ultra in many AI benchmarks.
Anthropic says in the press release that its top-level LLM, Claude 3 Opus, outperforms OpenAI and Google models on benchmark questions such as undergraduate knowledge, general knowledge, elementary school math, and more. Along with better chatbot responses, the company has also added multi-model features to its Claude 3 models. It states that users will be able to upload images, documents, graphics and more to Claude 3 models and receive answers to questions about this content “on the same level as other leading models.”
The Claude 3 Opus is the most advanced model, but Anthropic says the Claude 3 Sonnet offers solid performance at a lower cost and is best used for enterprise operations. The smallest model is Claude 3 Haiku and it is designed to provide quick answers to these simpler questions. Claude 3 was also able to summarize up to 150,000 words, up from 75,000 in the older Claude 2, which was released less than a year ago in June 2023.
Anthropic says both Claude 3 Opus and Sonnet are currently available in 159 countries, with Haiku coming in the near future. Users can try Sonnet-based chat or use it for free at claude.ai. The Opus chatbot can be used with a paid subscription to Claude Pro for $20 per month.
