Anthropic is transforming Claude into a no-code app development platform, enabling users to create their own applications without needing coding skills. This move intensifies the competition among AI companies, especially with OpenAI's Canvas feature. Users can now build interactive, shareable applications with Claude, marking a shift from conversational chatbots to functional software tools. Millions of users have already created over 500 million "artifacts," ranging from educational games to data analysis tools, since the feature's initial launch.
Anthropic is embedding Claude's intelligence directly into these creations, allowing them to process user input and adapt content in real-time, independently of ongoing conversations. The new platform allows users to build, iterate and distribute AI driven utilities within Claude's environment. The company highlights that users can now "build me a flashcard app" with one request creating a shareable tool that generates cards for any topic, emphasizing functional applications with user interfaces. Early adopters are creating games with non-player characters that remember choices, smart tutors that adjust explanations, and data analyzers that answer plain-English questions.
Anthropic also faces scrutiny over its data acquisition methods, particularly concerning the scanning of millions of books. While a US judge ruled that training an LLM on legally purchased copyrighted books is fair use, Anthropic is facing claims that it pirated a significant number of books used for training its LLMs. The company hired a former head of partnerships for Google's book-scanning project, tasked with obtaining "all the books in the world" while avoiding legal issues. A separate trial is scheduled regarding the allegations of illegally downloading millions of pirated books.
