Anthropic has announced a significant update to its Claude AI model by releasing the system prompts that guide its operations. This move is aimed at increasing transparency and allows users to view the system prompts for all three versions of Claude, along with their last update dates. The release of these prompts is seen as a step towards greater openness in the AI industry, setting a precedent that could be adopted by other companies. The system prompts are crucial as they dictate the behavior and responses of the AI, which is fundamentally a statistical system predicting the likeliest next words. This initiative has been praised for its transparency compared to other AI models like ChatGPT.
