How does the computer use work -- Is this a desktop app they are providing that can do actions on your computer? Didn't see any such mention in the post

#52Why not rev the numbers? "3.5" vs. "3.5 New" feels weird -- is there a particular reason why Anthropic doesn't want to call this 3.6 (or even 3.5.1)?
Because its a finetune of 3.5 optimized for the use case of computer use.
Its actually accurate and its not a 3.6.

Similar to OpenAI when they update their current models they just update the date, for example this new Claude 3.5 Sonnet is "claude-3-5-sonnet-20241022".

exactly my thought too, go up with the version number! Some negative examples: Claude Sonnet 3.5 for Workstations, Claude Sonnet 3.5 XP, Claude Sonnet 3.5 Max Pro, Claude Sonnet 3.5 Elite, Claude Sonnet 3.5 Ultra

#56since they didnt rev the version, does this mean if we were using 3.5 today its just automatically using the new version? That doesnt seem great from a change management perspective though I am looking forward to using the new one in cursor.ai
No, Claude's models use date-pinning. The new model endpoint is claude-3-5-sonnet-20241022

For a company selling intelligence, that's a pretty stupid way of labelling a new product.
It worked for Nintendo.
The 3ds and “new 3ds” were both big sellers.

#58Does anyone know how I could check whether my Claude Sonnet version that I am using in the UI has been updated already?
search for "20241022" in network tab in devtools, confirmed for me

#59From the computer use video demo, that's a lot of API calls. Even though Claude 3.5 Sonnet is relatively cheap for its performance, I suspect computer use won't be. It's a very good idea that Anthropic upfront that it isn't perfect. And it's guaranteed that there will be a viral story where Claude will accidentally delete something important with it. I'm more interested in Claude 3.5 Haiku, particularly if it is inde…
It's just bizarre to force a computer to go through a GUI to use another computer. Of course it's going to be expensive.
With UIPath, Appian, etc. the whole field of RPA (robotic process automation) is a $XX billion industry that is built on that exact premise (that it's more feasible to do automation via GUIs than badly built/non-existing APIs).
Depending on how many GUI actions correspond to one equivalent AI orchestrated API call, this might also not be too bad in terms of efficiency.

I don't think that's correct. This looks like a new model. Significant jump in math and gpqa scores.
