Claude 3.5 Sonnet: the mid-tier that beats Claude 3 Opus
In one sentence Anthropic releases Claude 3.5 Sonnet: it beats Claude 3 Opus (the previous flagship) on stated benchmarks, at Sonnet pricing ($3/$15 per million tokens) and twice Opus's speed. Claude.ai gets a preview of 'Artifacts', a side panel for code and documents.
Anthropic doesn't upgrade the top model (Opus) but the middle one (Sonnet). The new Claude 3.5 Sonnet beats the old Claude 3 Opus on Anthropic's published benchmarks, runs twice as fast and costs one fifth.
Alongside the model comes Artifacts, in preview on Claude.ai: when you ask for code, documents or a website design, the result appears in a window next to the conversation, where you can see it, edit it and build on it in real time.
The model is free on Claude.ai and the iOS app (with higher limits for Pro and Team) and available via the API, Amazon Bedrock and Google Cloud Vertex AI.
