Anthropic has launched a set of connectors for Claude that allow the AI chatbot to tap into popular creative software, including Adobe\u2019s Creative Cloud apps, Affinity, Blender, Ableton, Autodesk, and more.<\/p>\n
This marks the company\u2019s latest efforts to break into the creative industry following its launch of Claude Design<\/a> earlier this month. The new connectors \u2014 which enable Claude to access apps<\/a>, retrieve data, and take actions within connected services \u2014 are \u201cdesigned to make it easier to use Claude for creative work,\u201d according to Anthropic, and can be used for specific functions in each app.<\/p>\n The Adobe for creativity connector can draw from Creative Cloud apps like Photoshop, Premiere, and Express to \u201cbring images, videos, and designs to life\u201d in Claude, for example. The connector for Ableton allows Claude to answer questions by sourcing information directly from the music software\u2019s official documentation, while the Blender integration gives the 3D modelling app\u2019s Python API a natural-language interface. You can read the full breakdown for every connector on Anthropic\u2019s blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cClaude can\u2019t replace taste or imagination, but it can open up new ways of working \u2014 faster and more ambitious ideation, a more expansive skillset, and the ability for creatives to take on larger-scale projects,\u201d Anthropic said. \u201cAI can also help shoulder the parts of the creative process that eat up time by handling repetitive tasks and eliminating manual toil.\u201d<\/p>\n As part of this announcement, Anthropic has also become a Corporate Patron of the Blender Development Fund<\/a>, which helps to support ongoing development of the open-source software, joining other big sponsors including Netflix, Epic, and Wacom. That membership means Anthropic will be handing Blender at least \u20ac240,000<\/a> (around $281,000) every year, something Blender says will help it to \u201ckeep pursuing projects independently, and to focus on building tools for artists and creators.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Anthropic has launched a set of connectors for Claude that allow the AI chatbot to tap into popular…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":20357,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[755,24,53,3154,182,398,66,781],"class_list":{"0":"post-20356","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-anthropic","8":"tag-adobe","9":"tag-ai","10":"tag-anthropic","11":"tag-anthropic-claude","12":"tag-claude","13":"tag-creators","14":"tag-news","15":"tag-tech"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20356","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20356"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20356\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/20357"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20356"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=20356"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=20356"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
