They managed to build something equally good (if not better) than GPT4, without losing 50% of their cap table to Microsoft. That alone is worth a lot.

The investments are absurdly large but if you believe LLMs will be fundamentally transformative then I can understand the logic.

Claude 2 is good and better than 3.5 but nothing close to 4 in general.
I’m not saying your experience is wrong, but for my use case (code, mainly), I’ve found Claude to be far more reliable (not to mention faster) than GPT4.
The larger context window might be nice, but it's nowhere close to GPT4's reasoning ability. GPT4 is still the best for coding.
I’m now almost always using Claude over GPT4 in my day to day and rarely have moments where I’m not happy with the output and fallback to ChatGPT

The big context window is so nice, I can dump in huge files or conversation exports and it can handle them without problems

How do you guys access Claude?
Claude is available without API on Poe and with API on Amazon Bedrock.

Am I the same only one who uses the web interface?

I keep thing simple (KISS) because I teach for a living, and only things my student can pick up in a class are useful to me.

I use the web interface as well. Is there even any other way? I also pay for Claude Pro
Google announced you'll be able to use Claude via GCP Vertex AI soon.

In my experience Claude 2 is better than GPT 4 in many non programming tasks.
