Anthropic launches Claude 3.5 Sonnet

Anthropic just introduced Claude 3.5 Sonnet, a new upgraded model that surpasses rivals like GPT-4o and its predecessor Opus across key benchmarks with significant speed boosts and cost reductions.

3.5 Sonnet boasts 2x the speed of Opus, while its token pricing comes in at 1/5 the cost of Anthropic’s previous top-tier model.
3.5 Sonnet outperforms Opus and GPT-4o across several benchmarks for reasoning, code, math, and knowledge abilities.
Anthropic introduced ‘Artifacts’, a new feature allowing users to view, edit, and build with Claude in a real-time side panel workspace.
The company said that 3.5 versions of Haiku and Opus are coming ‘later this year’, along with news features like Memory.

After GPT-4o briefly stole the top spot in the LLM leaderboard, Anthropic’s latest upgrade appears to reclaim the throne. The model acceleration is not slowing down — and if 3.5 Sonnet is already this good, an upcoming 3.5 Opus release could take LLMs to some wild new heights.
