Anthropic Set to Launch Conversational Voice AI

Anthropic is gearing up to launch a new "voice mode" feature that could give OpenAI's ChatGPT a run for its money, according to *Bloomberg*. This exciting AI voice assistant is set to be integrated into Anthropic's Claude AI chatbot, with a possible rollout "as soon as this month."
*Bloomberg* reports that Anthropic is planning to introduce three distinct English-language voices: Airy, Mellow, and Buttery. This isn't the first whisper we've heard about this potential feature. Anthropic's chief product officer, Mike Kreiger, spilled the beans in an interview with the *Financial Times* last month, saying, "We will do voice internally, too; it is a useful modality to have. We have prototypes."

The eagle-eyed app researcher M1Astra first spotted hints of this voice mode in Anthropic's iOS app, and *Bloomberg* later confirmed the discovery. *The Verge* reached out to Anthropic for a comment but didn't get an immediate response.
Founded by former OpenAI employees, Anthropic has emerged as a formidable competitor to the ChatGPT creators. The company recently unveiled a $200/month tier aimed at "power" users and also announced a new AI tool focused on research on Tuesday.

Anthropic's new voice mode for Claude sounds promising, but I'm skeptical about how well it'll compete with ChatGPT. The integration into Claude is cool, but will it be as smooth and natural? Excited to try it out, though! 🤔🎤

アントロピックのクロードへの新しいボイスモードは有望に聞こえるけど、ChatGPTとどれだけ競争できるか疑問だね。クロードへの統合はカッコいいけど、自然でスムーズになるのかな?試してみるのが楽しみだよ!🤔🎤

안트로픽의 클로드에 대한 새로운 음성 모드는 promising해 보이지만, ChatGPT와 얼마나 경쟁할 수 있을지 의문이야. 클로드에 통합하는 건 멋지지만, 자연스럽고 부드럽게 될까? 그래도 사용해보는 게 기대돼! 🤔🎤

O novo modo de voz da Anthropic para o Claude parece promissor, mas estou cético sobre como ele vai competir com o ChatGPT. A integração ao Claude é legal, mas será que vai ser tão suave e natural? Ainda assim, estou animado para testar! 🤔🎤

Новый голосовой режим от Anthropic для Claude звучит многообещающе, но я сомневаюсь, насколько хорошо он сможет конкурировать с ChatGPT. Интеграция в Claude крутая, но будет ли она такой же плавной и естественной? Хотя, с нетерпением жду возможности попробовать! 🤔🎤
