AI systems often use more direct experience than a human could get in a lifetime. Humans require less experience, because they "transfer" past experience to new tasks. Recent work I led found an equation to characterize transfer in a simple setting. arxiv.org/pdf/2102.01293.pdf 👇

Today, AI can generate tons of code—but how do we know if it's good? That's why we built Sculptor: the first coding agent environment. Sculptor helps you catch issues, write tests, and improve your code—all while you work in your favorite editor.

A big part of my job these days is to think about what technical work Anthropic needs to do to make things go well with the development of very powerful AI. I digested my thinking on this, plus some of the Anthropic zeitgeist around it, into this piece: sleepinyourhat.github.io/che…

The word hasn't gotten out yet just how good Claude 3 Opus is for economics and economic reasoning. So here's the word.

I find our latest model to have a lot more nuanced and careful thinking. Feels like a big step towards the thought partner I want.
Today, we're announcing Claude 3, our next generation of AI models. The three state-of-the-art models—Claude 3 Opus, Claude 3 Sonnet, and Claude 3 Haiku—set new industry benchmarks across reasoning, math, coding, multilingual understanding, and vision.

New Anthropic Paper: Sleeper Agents. We trained LLMs to act secretly malicious. We found that, despite our best efforts at alignment training, deception still slipped through. arxiv.org/abs/2401.05566

Our new model Claude 2.1 offers an industry-leading 200K token context window, a 2x decrease in hallucination rates, system prompts, tool use, and updated pricing. Claude 2.1 is available over API in our Console, and is powering our claude.ai chat experience.

We should expect a jump that in some sense feels like the jump between gpt3 and claude/gpt4 in the next ~2 years, based on smooth underlying exponentials in effective compute. There is lots of meaning in trying to make that go well and meaning is top of the hierarchy of needs.
How quickly is A.I. advancing? And should you be working in the field? Checkout my recent conversation on these topics with @Hernandez_Danny: podcast.clearerthinking.org/…

We develop a method to test global opinions represented in language models. We find the opinions represented by the models are most similar to those of the participants in USA, Canada, and some European countries. We also show the responses are steerable in separate experiments.

General access to Claude via slack.
Today we are releasing the new Claude App for @SlackHQ, in beta. Now every company in the world has the chance to have a “virtual teammate” who can help make work more fun and productive.

Only model I'm aware of comparable to ChatGPT. Have some notable customers. Some prefer its personality, clarity, summarization, creativity, etc. I Makes sense for any business using ChatGPT to compare it to Claude.
After working for the past few moths with key partners like @NotionHQ, @Quora, and @DuckDuckGo, we’ve been able to carefully test out our systems in the wild. We are now opening up access to Claude, our AI assistant, to power businesses at scale.

Writing AI evals is the first AI researcher task I've seen where models feel clearly better than me. This automation will enable much better measurement and understanding of LM's broadly. Reduces eval iteration time from ~week to ~hour. >10x more leverage from a researcher.
It’s hard work to make evaluations for language models (LMs). We’ve developed an automated way to generate evaluations with LMs, significantly reducing the effort involved. We test LMs using >150 LM-written evaluations, uncovering novel LM behaviors. anthropic.com/model-written-…
