Anthropic AI introduced a new built-in feature for Claude.ai this week that enables this chatbot to write and run JavaScript code.
This analysis tool can analyze and render interactive visualizations from CSV files and PDFs, conduct analysis, and do complex math, producing real-time insights. It iterates on different ideas before sharing an answer.
“The ability to process information and run code means you get more accurate answers—building on Claude 3.5 Sonnet’s state-of-the-art coding and data skills,” said the company.
Anthropic has offered this feature before, but since it lacks a mechanism to verify the results mathematically, the answers aren’t always accurate.
Anthropic provided a few examples of where this tool might be useful:
-
- Marketers can upload customer interactions across the full funnel and Claude will surface opportunities to improve conversions.
- Sales teams can upload global sales data and Claude will provide country-specific performance analysis.
- Engineers can upload performance logs from various servers and Claude will identify areas for better resource utilization.
Similarly, OpenAI’s models can write and execute code via a feature called Advanced Data Analysis.
Google offers a comparable feature called Code Execution on its Gemini models. It runs and generates Python code that learns iteratively from the results.
