Introducing Claude 3.7 Sonnet: our most intelligent model to date. It's a hybrid reasoning model, producing near-instant responses or extended, step-by-step thinking. One model, two ways to think. Claude 3.7 Sonnet is a significant upgrade over its predecessor. In extended thinking mode, it self-reflects before answering, which improves its performance on math, physics, instruction-following, coding, and many other tasks. We generally find that prompting for the model works similarly in both modes. API users also have fine-grained control over how long the model can think for. Claude 3.7 Sonnet is a state-of-the-art model for coding and agentic tool use. However, in developing it, we optimized less for math and computer science competition problems, and more for real-world tasks. We believe this more closely reflects the needs of our customers. We conducted extensive model testing for safety, security, and reliability. We also listened to your feedback. With Claude 3.7 Sonnet, we've reduced unnecessary refusals of requests by 45% compared to its predecessor. Claude 3.7 Sonnet and Claude Code mark an important step towards AI systems that can truly augment human capabilities. We look forward to seeing what you'll create. And we welcome your feedback as we continue to build. https://lnkd.in/egPBvEag
We've overhauled the Anthropic Console to serve as one place to build, test, and iterate on prompts with Claude. And now you can share prompts with your teammates, too. We've also added support for our latest model, Claude 3.7 Sonnet, and the ability to control the extended thinking budget—right from the Workbench. Read more: https://lnkd.in/ePNCEsXY

We're proud to participate in the U.S. Department of Energy’s first-ever 1,000 Scientist AI Jam, which will bring together scientists across multiple National Laboratories to evaluate frontier AI models on scientific research and national security applications. Earlier this week, we launched Claude 3.7 Sonnet, our most intelligent model, which will be evaluated at the event. At the event, scientists will explore Claude 3.7 Sonnet’s capabilities across a range of scientific tasks from problem understanding and literature search to hypothesis generation, experiment planning, code generation, and result analysis. The insights gained will help us improve Claude to better serve America’s scientific community—and further strengthen our nation's competitive advantage. Through initiatives like the AI Jam, we are demonstrating how industry and government can collaborate to harness AI’s transformative potential. Applying our most advanced technology to the nation’s critical scientific challenges will help unlock a world where AI is a powerful force for progress. Read more: https://lnkd.in/djtV3yEh

Today marks an exciting milestone in our ongoing partnership with Amazon: Anthropic and Amazon are bringing Claude's capabilities to Alexa+. This latest collaboration builds on our successful work together. There are so many great uses I can’t wait to take advantage of: “Stories with Alexa” for kids; conversational management of to-dos and calendar, and so much more. What makes this expansion of our partnership so special to me is our shared commitment to responsible innovation. Together, we're making advanced AI more accessible while maintaining the highest standards of privacy and safety.https://lnkd.in/ga5h74Qq
Claude and Alexa+ anthropic.com
Claude will help power Amazon's next-generation AI assistant, Alexa+. Amazon and Anthropic have worked closely together over the past year, with Mike Krieger leading a team that helped Amazon get the full benefits of Claude's capabilities. Alexa+ will start rolling over the coming weeks: https://lnkd.in/eF_jV2Wv
A few researchers at Anthropic have, over the past year, had a part-time obsession with a peculiar problem: Can Claude play Pokémon? Early attempts were poor. In June 2024, Claude 3.5 Sonnet struggled to progress. When challenged, it repeatedly tried to run from mandatory battles. This wasn't surprising: Claude has never been explicitly trained to play any video games. These early attempts were not without moments of levity too. On one occasion, Claude got stuck in a corner and—convinced something must be broken—typed out a formal request to reset the game. With the new Claude 3.5 Sonnet in October, there was a glimmer of improvement. Claude managed to beat a rival for the first time and move beyond Pallet Town. But ultimately, progress stalled. Better, yes, but far from becoming a Pokémon master. Last week, a researcher tried out an early preview of Claude 3.7 Sonnet. The results were striking. Within hours, Claude defeated Brock. Days later, it trounced Misty. Progress that older models had little hope of achieving. Turns out extended thinking is super effective. Where previous models wandered aimlessly or got stuck in loops, Claude 3.7 Sonnet plans ahead, remembers its objectives, and adapts when initial strategies fail. Critical skills for battling pixelated gym leaders. And, we posit, in solving real-world problems too. So, what makes this possible? Claude was given a knowledge base to store notes, vision to see the screen, and function calls which allow it to simulate button presses and navigate the game. Together, they allow Claude to sustain gameplay with tens of thousands of interactions. With a few tools to help it see the screen a bit better, Claude acts as an agent, applying its abilities to a novel task. In this, we start to see glimmers of AI systems that tackle challenges with increasing competence, not just through training but with generalized reasoning. A small but enthusiastic following has formed at Anthropic, checking in on Claude's progress. Claude provides its followers daily moments of delight, like deciding to misname its Squirtle, "TSUNMAI!" Claude Plays Pokémon continues on as a researcher's personal project. Follow along on Twitch: https://lnkd.in/gMfe_-BS
Some things come to us nearly instantly. Others take much more mental stamina. We can choose to apply more or less cognitive effort depending on the task at hand. Now, Claude has that same flexibility. Claude’s extended thinking mode gives it an impressive boost in intelligence to tackle tricky problems. Developers can even set a “thinking budget” to control precisely how long Claude spends on a problem. You can read much more about extended thinking—including about Claude’s success in playing Pokémon—in our research blog post:https://lnkd.in/ePJYd3N3
