Anthropic announced today that its AI assistant Claude can now search and process information from the internet in real-time, addressing one of users' most requested features and closing a critical competitive gap with OpenAI's ChatGPT.

The new web search capability, available immediately for paid Claude users in the United States, transforms the AI assistant from a tool limited by its training data cutoff to one that can access and synthesize the latest information across the web.

"With web search, Claude has access to the latest events and information, boosting its accuracy on tasks that benefit from the most recent data," Anthropic said in its announcement. The company emphasized that Claude will provide direct citations to sources, allowing users to fact-check information - a direct response to growing concerns about AI hallucinations and misinformation.

The web search rollout also follows Anthropic's recent release of Claude 3.7 Sonnet, which the company claims has set "a new high-water mark in coding abilities." This focus on programming proficiency appears strategic, especially in light of CEO Dario Amodei's recent prediction at a Council on Foreign Relations event that "in three to six months, AI will be writing 90% of the code" that software developers currently produce.
