Claude chatbot," The Verge reports.

company claims it is safer and more reliable.
Anthropic's chatbot operates in a similar manor as ChatGPT and Bard, but the
company claims it is safer and more reliable.
This is reportedly due to Claude's
ability to autonomously revise responses instead of depending on humans.
The chatbot also has the ability to interpret larger prompts, which is helpful when examining longer documents.
The deal will grant Amazon minority ownership of Anthropic. .
The company's technology will
be incorporated into various
Amazon products and applications. .
Google also has a 10% stake in the company,
which will not be affected by the deal with Amazon.
