Zvi Mowshowitz discusses the new Claude 3.5 Sonnet, a new large language model (LLM) from Anthropic, considering as 'the best non-tiny LLM available'. Zvi outlines the model's improvements in speed, cost-effectiveness, and capabilities, including new features like Artifacts. The author also explores the implications for AI development, safety concerns, and the ongoing race in AI advancement.

Key points:

• Claude 3.5 Sonnet outperforms previous models in benchmarks and human evaluations.

• The model introduces Artifacts, a new feature for collaborative work environments.

• Anthropic commits to not using user data for training without explicit permission.

• The UK Artificial Intelligence Safety Institute (UK AISI) performed a safety evaluation before release.

• Claude 3.5 Sonnet shows significant improvements in coding capabilities, potentially accelerating AI development.

• The model still struggles with certain logical puzzles, highlighting ongoing challenges in AI reasoning.
