Anthropic

Anthropic is an AI safety and research company with the official website anthropic.com. The company's core work revolves around building reliable, interpretable, and steerable AI systems, and its main product is a family of large language models named Claude.\n\nThe core of its product line is the Claude 3 model family, which includes three specific members: Claude 3 Opus, Claude 3 Sonnet, and Claude 3 Haiku. These three models are differentiated by their capabilities and speed to suit different application needs. Among them, Opus is positioned as the model for handling highly complex tasks; Sonnet aims to balance intelligence with response speed; and Haiku is designed to be the fastest option in its class.\n\nThe Claude 3 models have the ability to process and analyze visual information, capable of interpreting various image formats uploaded by users, such as photos, charts, graphs, and technical diagrams. In terms of handling long texts, this model family offers a 200K token context window, enabling it to receive and process inputs containing a large amount of information. According to its published technical documentation, the Claude 3 models have improved accuracy in answering questions and have reduced the frequency of providing incorrect information.\n\nAnthropic's technical approach includes a training framework called "Constitutional AI." This framework aims to enable the model to learn and adhere to a set of explicit guiding principles (a "constitution") autonomously during training, thereby generating helpful and harmless responses. This process reduces the reliance on large-scale human labeling.\n\nUsers and developers can access the Claude models through various channels. Anthropic provides an Application Programming Interface (API) that allows developers to integrate Claude's capabilities into their own products and services. The company also operates a website, claude.ai, where users can interact directly with the model through a web-based chat interface. Additionally, the model's API is also available through the Amazon Bedrock platform from Amazon Web Services and the Vertex AI platform from Google Cloud.
