Summary

Anthropic has quickly become one of the leaders in generative AI foundation models. Anthropic’s Claude family of models (Haiku, Sonnet, and Opus) have proven to be able to process various visual formats, a high degree of accuracy, generate high-quality code all while keeping hallucinations under control.

In this course, we will introduce the main concepts behind this class of models and how their functionality is made accessible through the Anthropic API. We will build example applications to illustrate the use of each of these tools and how they can be composed and highlight when to use each model to obtain high-quality outputs at the lowest cost.
