Claude

Claude is the product of Google-funded AI startup Anthropic, which received a hefty sum of $300 million from the tech giant in February. In a world full of misbehaving AI programs, Claude’s claim to fame is being the “nice guy” of the chatbot world. That is, Anthropic has said its product is “less likely to produce harmful outputs” than some of its competitors (we’re looking at you, Sydney) and is “easier to converse with.” It’s somewhat unclear what programming makes Claude so well-behaved but I guess with a name like Claude how could you be anything but a respectable and boring gentleman? Like other chatbots, Claude is currently enjoying an “early access” trial for a limited user base.
