Hello friends! Today, let’s explore how AI is becoming more conversational with a new feature from Anthropic.
Anthropic has launched a beta voice mode for its Claude chatbot apps. This new feature lets users enjoy full spoken interactions with Claude, making chat more natural. It’s set to roll out in English soon, with some early users already gaining access.
The voice mode is mainly powered by Claude Sonnet 4, the latest AI model from Anthropic. It allows you to speak and listen to responses, transforming the way you engage with the AI. Imagine chatting about your calendar or searching documents by simply talking — pretty neat!
Several other AI companies, like OpenAI, Google, and xAI, already offer voice chat options, making conversations more fluid. Anthropic’s take promises to include multiple voice choices, seamless switching between text and speech, and displaying key points on screen as Claude responds.
However, there are some limits. Voice chats count toward usage caps—most free users can expect around 20-30 conversations. Paid subscribers get extra perks, like integrating with Google Calendar and Gmail, with Google Docs features available on higher plans.
Anthropic’s voice capabilities have been in development for some time, with the company exploring collaborations with Amazon and ElevenLabs, which focus on voice tech. The CEO confirmed work on voice features earlier this year, hinting at broad ambitions for this technology.
Join us at upcoming industry events like TechCrunch Sessions: AI, where pioneers will discuss the future of AI, including developments like Claude’s new voice mode. Stay tuned for more updates on AI innovation!
