Byte-Sized Brief
- Anthropic may soon give Claude memory of past chats.
- This update targets users with repeat or intensive tasks.
- More parity with other chatbots, including privacy issues.
Claude’s about to give other major AI chatbots a run for their money. TestingCatalog reports that Anthropic’s working on a major upgrade to the Claude mobile experience, and a brand-new one for iOS, which includes testing a new memory feature that users familiar with ChatGPT or Gemini already know well. With this update, Claude would gain the power to reference previous sessions and details from past conversations and recall them for repetitive or long-term tasks.
It’s a shift that other AI companies like OpenAI have embraced and one that could dramatically change the way regular Claude users interact with the chatbot. Previously, Claude stood out as one of the few AI assistants to avoid retaining any data on users for chats or training purposes. While this new experience is in its infancy, it’s probably safe to say that once it rolls out Claude will be less secure with a better memory.
The Bottom Line
Anthropic’s working on a new memory and chat search recall feature for the iOS and web Claude experience. This ability to reference prior conversations helps Claude catch up to rivals like ChatGPT and provide more individualized assistance to regular users. But with this new power also comes questions of how private the Claude experience will be.
