Anthropic adds web search to its Claude chatbot | TechCrunch
Briefly

Anthropic's AI chatbot, Claude, has introduced web search capabilities for its paid users in the U.S., with plans for broader access. With the latest model, Claude 3.7 Sonnet, users can toggle web search in their settings. This feature allows Claude to provide real-time information, complete with citations for easy fact-checking. Aimed at achieving parity with competitors like ChatGPT and Gemini, this move marks a significant shift from Anthropic's previous stance of creating a self-contained model, highlighting the competitive landscape in AI chatbots.
"When Claude incorporates information from the web into its responses, it provides direct citations so you can easily fact check sources."
"This enhancement expands Claude's extensive knowledge base with real-time insights, providing answers based on more current information."
