Partnering with Constitutional AI

I partner with constitutional AI every day. One of my go-to tools is Poe.com, where I can use multiple LLMs as brainstorming partners, all in one interface.

  • Ask Sage's Sage
  • Meta's Llama 2
  • Google's PaLM 2
  • OpenAI's GPT-3.5/4
  • Anthropic's Claude 2 (constitutional)

Here's what I do: I thoughtfully write a prompt and pop it into each bot to see what different responses I get. It's like having smart colleagues with unique views on a topic, all hanging out in my office waiting to help me.

What Makes Claude Stand Out?

What is Claude's standout feature that has me using it daily? A whopping 100K tokens per prompt. That's 12 times the standard with capacity for 75,000+ words, roughly the size of a business textbook. This allows it to understand more context and produce more diverse and coherent outputs. Examples of how you could use it:

  1. Research
  2. Industry Analysis
  3. Customized Solution Creation
  4. Contract Review
  5. Competitive Analysis
  6. Customer Feedback Analysis
  7. Training and Onboarding
  8. Strategy Collaboration
  9. Monitoring Regulatory Compliance
  10. Knowledge Store Accessible by Natural Language Questions

How Claude Is Different

In addition to using humans to fine-tune Claude like other LLMs do, Anthropic also uses a second AI model called Constitutional AI. Intended to discourage toxic, biased, or unethical answers and maximize positive impact, it includes:

  1. Rules borrowed from the United Nations' Declaration of Human Rights and Apple's terms of service.
  2. Rules that Claude's researchers found improved the safety of Claude's output, like "Choose the response that would be most unobjectionable if shared with children."
