Claude 3.5 Sonnet: A New Benchmark in AI

Today marks the launch of Claude 3.5 Sonnet, a groundbreaking addition to the Claude AI model family that promises to redefine the standards of intelligence in the industry. As the inaugural release in the Claude 3.5 series, Claude 3.5 Sonnet outshines its predecessors, including the acclaimed Claude 3 Opus, in a wide array of evaluations. It combines superior intelligence with the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of the mid-tier Claude 3 Sonnet model, making it a game-changer in the AI landscape.

Claude 3.5 Sonnet is now freely accessible on Claude.ai and the Claude iOS app. Subscribers to the Claude Pro and Team plans benefit from significantly higher rate limits. Additionally, the model is available through the Anthropic API, Amazon Bedrock, and Google Cloud’s Vertex AI, priced at $3 per million input tokens and $15 per million output tokens, featuring a 200K token context window. This accessibility ensures that a broad range of users can leverage the advanced capabilities of Claude 3.5 Sonnet for various applications.


Setting New Standards in Speed and Intelligence

Claude 3.5 Sonnet not only sets new benchmarks in intelligence but also operates at twice the speed of Claude 3 Opus. It excels in graduate-level reasoning, undergraduate-level knowledge, and coding proficiency, as evidenced by superior performance in GPQA, MMLU, and HumanEval benchmarks. This model demonstrates a refined ability to grasp nuances, humor, and complex instructions, producing high-quality content in a natural and relatable tone.

In an internal agentic coding evaluation, Claude 3.5 Sonnet showcased its advanced problem-solving skills by successfully addressing 64% of issues, a significant improvement over Claude 3 Opus's 38% success rate. The model's capacity to independently write, edit, and execute code with sophisticated reasoning makes it ideal for complex tasks such as customer support and workflow orchestration. Its adeptness at code translation also proves invaluable for updating legacy applications and migrating codebases.


Advancing Visual Reasoning and Collaboration with Artifacts

Claude 3.5 Sonnet is our most advanced vision model yet, surpassing Claude 3 Opus in standard vision benchmarks. This advancement is particularly evident in tasks requiring visual reasoning, such as interpreting charts and graphs. The model's ability to accurately transcribe text from imperfect images makes it a crucial tool for sectors like retail, logistics, and financial services, where visual data often provides richer insights than text alone.

Alongside the launch of Claude 3.5 Sonnet, we are introducing Artifacts on Claude.ai. This new feature allows users to interact with AI-generated content in a dynamic workspace, seamlessly integrating code snippets, text documents, and website designs into their projects. Artifacts represent a significant step towards transforming Claude from a conversational AI into a collaborative work environment, paving the way for enhanced team collaboration and centralized knowledge management.


Commitment to Safety, Privacy, and Future Developments

Safety and privacy remain at the forefront of our development process. Claude 3.5 Sonnet has undergone rigorous testing to mitigate misuse, maintaining its ASL-2 safety level. Our collaboration with external experts and organizations like the UK’s Artificial Intelligence Safety Institute ensures robust safety mechanisms. We continuously refine our models using feedback from experts, including those specializing in child safety, to address potential abuses effectively.

Privacy is a cornerstone of our AI model development. We do not train our models on user-submitted data without explicit permission. Looking ahead, we plan to expand the Claude 3.5 family with Claude 3.5 Haiku and Claude 3.5 Opus. Our team is also exploring new features like Memory, which will enable Claude to remember user preferences, enhancing personalization and efficiency.

We are dedicated to improving Claude and value user feedback. You can share your thoughts on Claude 3.5 Sonnet directly through the product to help shape our future developments. We eagerly anticipate the innovations our users will create with Claude.
