Anthropic has released one of its latest AI models, Claude 3.5 Haiku, to users of its chatbot platform, Claude.
Reports about Haiku 3.5 launching in Claude started circulating Thursday morning on social media, and TechCrunch was able to independently confirm that the model is available in Claude on web and mobile.

The 3.5 Haiku, which Anthropic unveiled in November, matches or betters the performance of Anthropic’s flagship model, the 3 Opus, on select benchmarks. Anthropic says Haiku 3.5 is particularly well-suited for programming recommendations, data mining and tagging, and content moderation.
3.5 Haiku can also output longer pieces of text than Haiku 3, its predecessor, and the model has an up-to-date cognitive cut, meaning it can reference more recent events.
The 3.5 Haiku does not support image analysis, making it less capable than Anthropic’s other available models, the 3 Haiku and 3.5 Sonnet, in at least one key aspect.
3.5 Haiku became the subject of a bit of controversy when it arrived in Anthropic’s API early last month. Anthropic initially suggested that the cost of 3.5 Haiku would be equal to the cost of 3 Haiku, but then changed its tune – arguing that the increased “intelligence” of the model warranted a higher API cost.
