Anthropic says it’s released its ‘most intelligent’ AI model yet as competition ramps up
Anthropic unveils Claude 3.7 Sonnet, a hybrid AI model combining real-time responses with complex reasoning capabilities.
As heavily funded startups and tech giants hustle to get any lead they can in artificial intelligence, Anthropic says it's developed the company's 'most intelligent' AI model yet. The Amazon-backed startup on Monday unveiled Claude 3.7 Sonnet. What makes it unique is its so-called hybrid model, which combines an ability to reason — or stopping to think about complex answers — with a traditional model that spits out answers in real time. Anthropic product chief Mike Krieger, who previously co-founded Instagram, said the hybrid approach is a way to simplify the chatbot process for customers. They can use multiple capabilities without needing to think about which is the best option. 'Models all have personalities, they're all a bit different,' Krieger told CNBC, adding that it's a 'lot' to have consumers choose the model, or how long they want it to reason. 'I would love for people, end users, not have to think about that very much at all.' Krieger said users should be able to turn the hybrid option on or off for simplicity. They can give it a time 'budget' based on what they're working on. Anthropic will also roll out a tool for coding using agents on Monday.
