Google-backed Anthropic releases Claude 2, opens it to public for testing – Times of India
The company says Claude is a “friendly, enthusiastic colleague or personal assistant” who can understand natural language commands and assist with various tasks.
Claude 2, an upgraded version of the old Claude (Claude 1.3), possesses the ability to search through documents, provide summaries, write content, code, and answer specific questions. Anthropic, the developer, claims that Claude 2 outperforms its predecessor in multiple aspects.
One example of the differences between Claude 1.3 and Claude 2 is their performance on the multiple-choice section of the bar exam. Claude 2 scored slightly higher with a 76.5% compared to Claude 1.3’s 73%.
Additionally, Claude 2 was able to pass the multiple-choice portion of the U.S. Medical Licensing Exam and performed better on the Codex Human Level Python coding test with a score of 71.2% compared to Claude 1.3’s 56%.
The second-gen AI chatbot was also able to answer more mathematics problems correctly with an 88% on the GSM8K collection of grade-school-level problems, which is 2.8 percentage points higher than Claude 1.3.
Anthropic has recently increased Claude’s context window to approximately 75,000 words. This allows you to upload several pages to the bot, or even a full-length novel, for the bot to analyse. Other models have much smaller limits, with ChatGPT having a maximum of around 3,000 words.
Unlike Bard and Bing, Claude 2 is not yet linked to the internet. It has been trained on data up to December 2022, so it cannot provide the latest information on current events.
The training data for Claude 2 consisted of a blend of websites, third-party licensed data sets, and user data from early 2023, with around 10% of it being non-English.
Google backed AI startup, first launched the chatbot in March. However, at that time, the chatbot was only accessible to businesses upon request or as a Slack app.
