Anthropic brings voice mode to its most powerful Claude AI models

Anthropic has expanded its voice mode to include Opus and Sonnet, its most advanced AI models. This change allows users to interact with these models through voice in apps like Gmail, Slack, and Canva. Until now, voice mode was only available on the faster but less capable Haiku model. This update makes voice interactions more accessible and powerful for everyday users.

Anthropic brings voice mode to its most powerful Claude AI models

Anthropic, the company behind the Claude AI assistant, has expanded its voice mode to include its most advanced models, Opus and Sonnet. Until now, voice mode was only available on Haiku, a faster but less powerful version of Claude. This update allows users to interact with the more capable Opus and Sonnet models through voice commands in apps like Gmail, Slack, and Canva.

This change makes AI interactions more accessible and convenient for everyday users. For example, you can now dictate emails in Gmail, manage tasks in Slack, or create designs in Canva using your voice. This is particularly useful for people who prefer hands-free interactions or have mobility challenges.

To try this out today, open the Claude app and navigate to the settings menu. Enable voice mode and select either Opus or Sonnet as your preferred model. Once enabled, you can start using voice commands in supported apps. If you don't have the Claude app yet, download it from the app store and follow the same steps to enable voice mode.
