Recently, users on the X platform discovered that Anthropic's Haiku 3.5 version appeared in the Claude.ai application, which may indicate that this AI model is set to be released to the public in the coming days. Haiku 3.5 is the latest version of the smallest AI model in the Anthropic family.
Well-known backend feature discoverer Tibor Blaho took action again, attempting to upload an image using Haiku, but received a warning message stating, "Claude 3.5 Haiku does not support images." Additionally, he shared an image containing backend code that revealed the model's code "claude-3-5-haiku-20241022."
Last month, Anthropic provided access to the Claude 3.5 Haiku model solely through API on AWS Bedrock and Google’s Vertex AI. Anthropic also mentioned that 3.5 Haiku is a pure text model, with image input capabilities to follow soon. Notably, it shows significant improvements over Haiku 3, and Claude's 3.5 Haiku outperforms the previous flagship Opus 3 model, making it the fastest model to date.
If Haiku 3.5 is soon made available to users, it will be great news. Developers have already been able to test its capabilities, with iGent AI's CEO Sean Ward stating, "Claude 3.5 Haiku demonstrates impressive reasoning and code generation abilities, including robust multi-turn code refinement, which reduces code-related errors by 60%, placing it on par with larger models."
Recently, Anthropic announced a new feature integrating Google Docs with Claude, allowing for "direct citations" of content in chats. You can insert a Google Docs file into the chat or project, enabling Claude to access and use that information to generate output. Furthermore, you can set Claude's output style and add predefined instructions and output preferences.
In a podcast with Lex Fridman, Dario Amodei also confirmed positive plans for the upcoming flagship Opus 3.5 model. Anthropic recently announced another round of funding, raising $4 billion from Amazon Web Services (AWS), bringing Amazon's total investment in the AI startup to $8 billion.
