Anthropic, OpenAI’s biggest rival, has launched its latest AI model called Claude 3.5 Sonnet — the company’s first release in the upcoming Claude 3.5 AI model series.
What is Claude 3.5 Sonnet?
- It is a large language model (LLM), and is part of the family of LLMs which is being developed by Anthropic.
- These models are known as generative pre-trained transformers, which means they have been pre-trained to predict the next word in large amounts of text.
- It is the predecessor to the Claude 3 Sonnet introduced in March of this year.
- It is likely to be the middle model (based on parameter size) in the upcoming series of AI models by Anthropic — the smallest and biggest models are yet to be released.
- Claude 3.5 Sonnet outperforms Claude 3 Opus by a huge margin.
- The new model is claimed to be twice as fast as the Claude 3 Sonnet.
- Claude 3.5 Sonnet sets some new industry benchmarks in capabilities such as coding proficiency (HumanEval), graduate-level reasoning (GPQA), and undergraduate-level knowledge (MMLU).
- The company claims that the new model has also shown significant improvement in grasping nuance, humour, and complex instructions. Claude 3.5 Sonnet is exceptional at writing high-quality content with a natural and relatable tone, according to Anthropic.
- Claude 3.5 Sonnet is its strongest vision model.
- A vision model in AI is a model capable of interpreting and analysing visual data such as images and videos.
