"Anthropic launches AI assistant Claude in Europe"
Anthropic announced in a press release that its web-based version Claude.ai, Claude iOS application, and subscription-based Claude Team plan (allowing enterprises to access the Claude 3 model series) have been fully launched in Europe.
These products join the previously launched Claude API in Europe, which allows developers to integrate Anthropic's AI models into their own applications, websites, or services.
Anthropic stated in the press release, "Claude has strong comprehension and fluency in European languages such as French, German, Spanish, and Italian, enabling users to communicate with Claude in multiple languages." "Claude's intuitive and user-friendly interface allows anyone to seamlessly integrate our advanced AI models into their workflows."
According to Bloomberg, the European Union has the most comprehensive AI regulatory framework, known as the "Artificial Intelligence Act."
Google has yet to offer its Gemini application in Europe, while OpenAI's ChatGPT is facing privacy complaints in the region.
Dario Amodei, CEO of Anthropic, told Bloomberg that their cloud computing partners, Amazon and Google, will assist Anthropic in complying with EU regulations, and Anthropic's software has already been applied in the financial and hospitality industries on the European continent.
According to a report by PYMNTS on May 2nd, Europe has a unique attitude towards AI, characterized by stricter regulations and a stronger emphasis on ethics and morality, which contrasts with the United States and China.
Although the adoption of AI in critical areas such as healthcare and government is slower in the region, some companies are advancing AI projects in the area.
