AI startup Anthropic will hold an online live event at 9:30 AM Eastern Time on Tuesday (10:30 PM Beijing Time) to showcase the latest features of its AI assistant Claude and launch new products.
The timing of this live event is noteworthy. Just on Monday, panic over the disruptive impact of AI severely hit the U.S. stock market, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average plunging over 800 points and the tech-heavy Nasdaq index dropping by 1.1%.
Anthropic stated that viewers will see a live demonstration of Claude, collaborative scenarios with Claude, insights from the company's leadership, and announcements of new products during the live stream. Mizuho analysts pointed out that there is a sense of "unease" in the market ahead of the Anthropic event, which may be one of the reasons for the stock market sell-off.
Analysts noted that investors are reluctant to take risks ahead of yet another AI product launch, as every piece of news from Anthropic is seen as "incremental competition" to existing software, regardless of whether this judgment is fair. Mizuho analysts indicated in their research report that in the face of uncertainty, investors are choosing to exit the market preemptively.
"Rather than trying to predict the outcome, investors choose to wait and see. Selling first and asking questions later is much easier than being trapped by another wave of news-driven sell-offs."
Analysts pointed out that this cautious attitude reflects the market's complex emotions regarding the rapid iteration of AI technology: on one hand, recognizing its long-term potential, while on the other hand, worrying about its impact on existing business models and market dynamics. Whether Anthropic's product showcase today can alleviate market anxiety or further exacerbate competition concerns will be a focal point for the market.
Claude Positioned as an Enterprise "Thinking Partner"
It is reported that the target audience for Anthropic's event includes corporate executives such as Chief Information Officers, Chief Risk Officers, General Counsel, and heads of analytics who are responsible for formulating AI strategies within their organizations. This indicates that Anthropic is focusing on penetrating the enterprise market.
Anthropic positions Claude as a "thinking partner," allowing users to tackle "any significant, bold, and perplexing challenges." Users can deploy Claude for various tasks such as chatting, generating code, visualizing data, searching the web, or creating content.
In terms of pricing, the annual subscription fee for the Claude Pro version is $17 per month, while the monthly billing is $20, and the Max version costs $100 per month.
The company stated that Claude itself is a "capable generalist," but when users connect their own tools, context, and knowledge, it becomes "an expert that understands your work like you do." **
