00:00.860 --> 00:03.530
Okay, let's walk through anthropic Claude.

00:03.530 --> 00:06.710
It's, uh, my current favorite model, actually.

00:06.710 --> 00:08.540
So it's a transformer model.

00:08.540 --> 00:09.620
Just ChatGPT.

00:09.830 --> 00:17.840
And actually, the team that created Anthropic's Claude model, I think, originally came from OpenAI

00:17.870 --> 00:18.320
as well.

00:18.350 --> 00:20.030
Yeah, they left because of safety concerns.

00:20.030 --> 00:24.590
And you could definitely find that you get a lot more refusals with this model for certain things.

00:24.680 --> 00:28.010
That's one caveat, but that said, it feels like the smartest model.

00:28.010 --> 00:30.860
So currently I'm using sonnet 3.5.

00:30.890 --> 00:32.540
It might be a newer model out there.

00:32.540 --> 00:38.120
Maybe they haven't retained their edge by the time you're watching this, but right now it's a really

00:38.120 --> 00:44.540
great model and it's accessible via the cloud console or the API, as well as through a web app and

00:44.540 --> 00:45.920
a mobile app as well.

00:46.160 --> 00:52.370
What major difference in terms of approach is that anthropic seems to focus more on constitutional AI

00:52.370 --> 00:59.660
or synthetic data, like training it based on a list of rules, in order to get it to follow those rules

00:59.720 --> 01:07.110
rather than using Rlf, which is what OpenAI used for its training it based on individual preferences

01:07.110 --> 01:07.830
from people.

01:07.830 --> 01:13.440
So in terms of performance, I would say that this is artificially low.

01:13.470 --> 01:14.940
It's definitely not seventh.

01:14.970 --> 01:18.300
It's definitely it's definitely way better than GPT four or mini.

01:18.330 --> 01:24.000
In my experience, I think the reason why the the rankings are a little bit lower for it is because

01:24.000 --> 01:25.470
it has so many refusals.

01:25.500 --> 01:28.200
I will just say no to some types of tasks.

01:28.230 --> 01:32.340
And also maybe the formatting isn't as perfect as like what people would want.

01:32.370 --> 01:37.140
One of the things I find is that it gives you a bit of a preamble of the text, and a little bit of

01:37.170 --> 01:39.090
a description of what it's done.

01:39.120 --> 01:40.530
It can't really help itself.

01:40.740 --> 01:45.000
So you have to work a little bit harder to parse the answer in my experience.

01:45.030 --> 01:52.230
Now, in terms of features that make it really powerful, one of the first things I did was I uploaded

01:52.230 --> 01:56.040
my whole book into the prompts, and it actually takes it.

01:56.070 --> 02:01.450
They have a at the time that 100 K contact center, now it's 200 K might even be longer.

02:01.480 --> 02:07.090
So I think only Google has a longer context window, but it does a really good job of document understanding

02:07.090 --> 02:08.140
because of that.

02:08.380 --> 02:10.360
It's also a great creative writing partner.

02:10.390 --> 02:15.010
Like, you can throw in a bunch of examples of something you're trying to do, like here I've got a

02:15.010 --> 02:21.880
bunch of examples of my blog post titles, and then it's coming up with good other ideas as well.

02:21.910 --> 02:26.410
It feels more creative than the other models, like some of these names are great, like the prompt,

02:26.410 --> 02:29.140
Whisperer, prompts and Wonderland.

02:29.170 --> 02:30.880
Dancing with Digital Socrates.

02:30.910 --> 02:32.290
Maybe a bit too crazy.

02:32.320 --> 02:33.970
And then Code Generation.

02:33.970 --> 02:35.590
It's currently the best model.

02:35.620 --> 02:40.630
The one that most people use for writing code in cursor specifically.

02:40.660 --> 02:45.910
You can choose which model you use when you're using the cursor code editor.

02:46.180 --> 02:48.880
This is like their version of GitHub Copilot.

02:48.880 --> 02:51.340
And man does it work really well.

02:51.370 --> 02:52.960
It's really useful.

02:53.080 --> 02:57.790
That's tends to be what people use it for document understanding, creative writing, and code generation.

02:57.790 --> 02:58.870
So try this model out.

02:58.870 --> 03:00.580
And yeah, let me know if you like it.
