QUICK TIP

AI QUICK TIP

✨ How To Use Claude 3.5 Sonnet Artifacts

Claude released Sonnet 3.5, their latest AI model that rivals ChatGPT’s 4o. With the release of this release, they introduced a new feature called Artifacts.

When a user asks Claude to generate content like code snippets, text documents, or website designs, these Artifacts appear in a dedicated window alongside the conversation. This creates a dynamic workspace where users can see, edit, and build upon Claude's creations in real-time, seamlessly integrating AI-generated content into their projects and workflows.

For example, if a user asks Claude to design something, Artifacts allows them to see the design and edit it directly within the app. Similarly, if Claude composes an email, users can edit the email within the Claude app instead of having to copy it to a text editor. Artifacts can include generated docs, code, mermaid diagrams, vector graphics, or even simple games.

Here’s how to turn on artifacts:

Login to your Claude account and select the model Sonnet 3.5.

A popup will appear that will prompt you to enable Artifacts. Enable on the toggle.

Once enabled, you’ll be able to interact with Artifacts when adding your prompts in Claude.
