Anthropic releases a new Claude 3.5 Sonnet model that can interact with desktop apps by imitating mouse and keyboard input via a “computer use” API, now in beta

In a pitch to investors last spring, Anthropic said it intended to build AI to power virtual assistants that could perform research …

    Introducing an upgraded Claude 3.5 Sonnet, and a new model, Claude 3.5 Haiku. We're also introducing a new capability in beta: computer use. Developers can now direct Claude to use computers the way people do—by looking at a screen, moving a cursor, clicking, and typing text. [im…

    Make sure to always have your adblocker running so Claude doesn't click some nasty download link

    we're building an api for the world around us.
  • @mikeyk Mike Krieger on x
    Beyond inspiring to see the different Anthropic teams come together for this launch — our upgraded Sonnet is even better at coding and other tasks, and we have a beta computer API for you to try as well.

    this is extremely huge for people who need accessibility. this is in line with what I said on primeagen's stream yesterday: AI should enable a large swathe of people that were previously disconnected, due to language or disability

    Computer use API We've built an API that allows Claude to perceive and interact with computer interfaces. You feed in a screenshot to Claude, and Claude returns the next action to take on the computer (e.g. move mouse, click, type text, etc). [image]

    Claude can now operate your computer like human does.

    listen I think one reason lots of people are intrigued by prediction markets is there's a couple of scenarios where stuff like this means online polling is deeply screwed.

    I'm excited to share what we've been working on lately at Anthropic. - Computer use API - New Claude 3.5 Sonnet - Claude 3.5 Haiku Let's walk through everything: [image]
  • @alexalbert__ Alex Albert on x
    This is a fundamentally new capability for AI models. Instead of developing bespoke tools for individual tasks, we're teaching Claude base computer skills—enabling it to naturally use the same everyday software and tools that people use.
  • @anthropicai @anthropicai on x
    Claude 3.5 Sonnet's current ability to use computers is imperfect. Some actions that people perform effortlessly—scrolling, dragging, zooming—currently present challenges. So we encourage exploration with low-risk tasks. We expect this to rapidly improve in the coming months.
  • @anthropicai @anthropicai on x
    We've built an API that allows Claude to perceive and interact with computer interfaces. This API enables Claude to translate prompts into computer commands. Developers can use it to automate repetitive tasks, conduct testing and QA, and perform open-ended research. [video]
  • @anthropicai @anthropicai on x
    We're trying something fundamentally new. Instead of making specific tools to help Claude complete individual tasks, we're teaching it general computer skills—allowing it to use a wide range of standard tools and software programs designed for people. [video]

    Someone is 100% going to say “hey Claude, clean up my files” and then Claude will rm -rf * https://x.com/...
  • @anthropicai @anthropicai on x
    The new Claude 3.5 Sonnet is the first frontier AI model to offer computer use in public beta. While groundbreaking, computer use is still experimental—at times error-prone. We're releasing it early for feedback from developers. [video]

    The commodification of RPA can't come soon enough
  • @anthropicai @anthropicai on x
    Beyond computer use, the new Claude 3.5 Sonnet delivers significant gains in coding—an area where it already led the field. Sonnet scores higher on SWE-bench Verified than all available models—including reasoning models like OpenAI o1-preview and specialized agentic systems. [ima…

    Claude 3.5 Haiku is the next generation of our fastest model. Haiku now outperforms many state-of-the-art models on coding tasks—including the original Claude 3.5 Sonnet and GPT-4o—at the same cost as before. The new Claude 3.5 Haiku will be released later this month. [image]
