This article is for subscribers only.
Anthropic is nearing the launch of a new voice assistant product for its Claude chatbot, nearly a year after rival OpenAI began rolling out a similar option for ChatGPT users.
The new feature, called “voice mode,” could be released as soon this month and will initially roll out on a limited basis, according to a person familiar with the matter who was not authorized to discuss private matters. Current plans include introducing three voices named Airy, Mellow and British-accented Buttery, according to the person and a Bloomberg News review of the app’s publicly available iOS code. Launch plans could change, however.
