Anthropic has launched a new AI agent, Claude for Chrome, which is accessible via a browser extension. This release is part of a research preview available to 1,000 subscribers on Anthropic’s Max plan, costing between $100 and $200 per month. The Claude agent can engage in conversations and perform tasks within a Chrome sidecar window. This development occurs amidst increasing competition among AI labs to integrate AI systems into web browsers, with companies like Perplexity and OpenAI also entering the field. The introduction of AI agents in browsers raises safety concerns, including potential vulnerabilities like prompt-injection attacks. However, Anthropic has implemented measures to mitigate these risks and improve the security of their AI systems. The company aims to use this research phase to refine the agent’s capabilities and address any emerging safety issues.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
