Anthropic updates Claude voice mode with more capable models

Anthropic 更新 Claude 语音模式，引入更强大的模型

Weeks after OpenAI rolled out a new family of conversational models and updated ChatGPT’s voice mode, rival Anthropic is making its move to make Claude more voice-friendly with a new update. The company said Thursday that users can choose between Opus, Sonnet, and Haiku models. 在 OpenAI 发布新一代对话模型并更新 ChatGPT 语音模式几周后，竞争对手 Anthropic 也采取了行动，通过一次新更新让 Claude 对语音交互更加友好。该公司周四表示，用户现在可以在 Opus、Sonnet 和 Haiku 模型之间进行选择。

Claude’s voice mode, which was released last year and powered by the Haiku model, provided quick responses, but wasn’t well suited for complex work. The company said that with the new update, voice mode picks the last model people used in the text chat and uses its fastest version by default. Claude 的语音模式于去年发布，由 Haiku 模型驱动，虽然响应速度快，但在处理复杂任务时表现欠佳。该公司表示，通过此次更新，语音模式将自动选择用户在文本聊天中最后使用的模型，并默认调用其最快版本。

Anthropic said that the new voice mode can help users with longer conversations, including providing feedback on their communication style, talking through a pitch to a client, and brainstorming product market research. Anthropic 表示，新的语音模式可以协助用户进行更深入的对话，包括提供沟通风格反馈、演练客户推介方案以及进行产品市场调研头脑风暴。

What’s more, Claude’s voice mode can tap into other apps like Gmail, Google Calendar, Slack, Canva, and Notion. This means that users can ask it to update a meeting slot, draft an email, or create a document in Notion. Notably, this is a big difference from OpenAI’s voice mode, which updated its conversational style but still isn’t able to use different tools to get work done. 此外，Claude 的语音模式还可以调用 Gmail、Google Calendar、Slack、Canva 和 Notion 等其他应用程序。这意味着用户可以要求它更新会议时间、起草电子邮件或在 Notion 中创建文档。值得注意的是，这与 OpenAI 的语音模式有很大不同——OpenAI 虽然更新了对话风格，但目前仍无法调用外部工具来完成工作。

Earlier this year, Anthropic added multilingual support to Claude’s voice mode in beta. It said that now users can talk in various languages, but they have to manually specify the language. At the moment, Anthropic supports English, French, German, Hindi, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese (Brazilian), and Spanish (Latin America/Spain). 今年早些时候，Anthropic 为 Claude 的语音模式添加了多语言测试版支持。该公司表示，用户现在可以用多种语言进行交流，但需要手动指定语言。目前，Anthropic 支持英语、法语、德语、印地语、印尼语、意大利语、日语、韩语、葡萄牙语（巴西）和西班牙语（拉丁美洲/西班牙）。

The new voice mode is available to all users in beta across platforms. However, free users will be restricted to using the Haiku model with only one connected app. Anthropic didn’t make any changes to the voice model with this release, and it hasn’t detailed what kind of voice stack it uses. That means, unlike OpenAI’s release, users might not find any conversational improvements such as better interruption handling. 新的语音模式现已在各平台向所有用户开放测试。不过，免费用户将被限制仅能使用 Haiku 模型，且只能连接一个应用程序。Anthropic 在此次发布中并未对语音模型本身进行调整，也未详细说明其使用的语音技术栈。这意味着，与 OpenAI 的发布不同，用户可能不会感受到对话体验的提升，例如更好的打断处理能力。
