In a groundbreaking move, Anthropic, a company founded by former OpenAI employees, has just unveiled Claude—an advanced AI chatbot now available as a mobile app for iOS users. Rooted in the pioneering work of the OpenAI team, Claude brings a fresh approach to conversational AI, distinguishing itself from its predecessor, ChatGPT, through its direct interaction style and expanded functionalities.
Since its launch last year, Claude has attracted attention for its unique features. Unlike ChatGPT, which aims to emulate human responses, Claude prioritizes factual accuracy in its interactions. Additionally, Claude stands out with its ability to analyze images and files, setting it apart from other AI chatbots.
The journey of Claude’s development stems from the divergent paths of its creators from OpenAI. Led by Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, formerly OpenAI’s VP of Research, the team prioritized safety over profits, leading to the establishment of Anthropic. Consequently, Claude stands as a testament to the dedication and expertise of ex-OpenAI talents, offering users a distinct conversational experience.
The transition of Claude to a mobile app signifies a significant milestone, making it accessible beyond web-based platforms. While iPhone users can immediately access the app through the App Store, Android users await its forthcoming availability. To start using Claude on your iPhone, simply search for “Claude” in the App Store, download the app, and follow the setup instructions. Users have the option to log in using their Google account, email, or Apple ID, ensuring seamless integration into their devices.
It’s worth noting that the free version of Claude provides limited messaging capabilities, restricting the number of messages within a specific time frame. However, users can subscribe to Claude Pro for uninterrupted access and additional features, priced at Rs 1,999 per month. This premium plan offers priority access during peak usage times, exclusive access to Claude 3 Opus, Anthropic’s most advanced model, and early access to upcoming features.
In a demonstration of Claude’s capabilities, India Today Tech tasked the AI chatbot with analyzing an image featuring a Shih Tzu puppy, showcasing its proficiency in image recognition and analysis. As Claude solidifies its position among AI chatbots, it not only reflects the creativity of its creators but also provides users with a glimpse into the future of conversational AI, characterized by precision, accessibility, and ongoing innovation.
