What is Claude and how is it different from ChatGPT?

Claude is an AI assistant made by Anthropic that works similarly to ChatGPT — you ask it questions in plain English and it responds helpfully. The main differences are that Claude is designed to be more careful about accuracy, better at reasoning through complex problems, and can read longer documents. You can use it free at claude.ai or through apps.

Claude is an artificial intelligence assistant created by a company called Anthropic. Like ChatGPT, you have a conversation with it — you ask questions, request help with writing or explaining, and it responds thoughtfully. Claude is trained differently and tends to be stronger at detailed thinking, staying accurate, and understanding context. It works on your computer and phone, and there's a free version available.
