Key Points
Claude 3.5 Sonnet can now control desktop applications using the new āComputer Useā API, performing human-like actions like keystrokes, clicks, and mouse gestures.
Claude 3.5 Sonnet surpasses OpenAIās o1 in coding tasks, and has the ability to self-correct and handle complex, multi-step objectives more effectively.
šØš»āš»News - Anthropic has launched an upgraded version of its Claude 3.5 Sonnet model that can interact with desktop applications. This new version, released on Tuesday, is powered by the āComputer Useā API, now in open beta. It can mimic human-like actions on a PC, including keystrokes, clicks, and mouse gestures, making it feel as if a person is physically using the computer. In a blog post, Anthropic explained that Claude can "see" the screen, analyze it, and perform actions based on screenshots of the user interface.
š¤ØIs it safe? While browsing the web and using apps isnāt new for AI models, itās a first for Anthropicās Claude. That being said, the model remains under human control at all times. Users provide specific prompts to direct Claudeās actions, such as āuse data from my computer to fill out this form.ā Humans enable and limit access as needed, ensuring the AI can only carry out tasks as instructed.
š§What makes it different? While desktop task automation isn't new, Claude 3.5 Sonnet introduces an āaction-execution layerā that allows it to perform more complex commands. Anthropic claims this model outperforms OpenAIās flagship model, o1, in coding tasks. It can also self-correct and work through long, multi-step objectives, even when it encounters obstacles.
š¤Are there any limitations? Despite its advancements, Claude 3.5 Sonnet still struggles with basic tasks like scrolling and zooming. It can also miss short-lived actions or notifications due to the way it processes and stitches together screenshots, which may cause it to overlook brief changes on the screen.
