Tonight! Amid full-blown market panic, Anthropic will livestream a showcase of Claude's latest features.
Artificial intelligence startup Anthropic will hold an online live event at 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time on Tuesday (10:30 p.m. Beijing Time tonight), showcasing the latest features of its AI assistant Claude and announcing new products. The timing of this live event is particularly noteworthy. On Monday, panic over the disruptive impact of artificial intelligence hit the U.S. stock market hard. The Dow Jones Industrial Average plunged more than 800 points, and the tech-heavy Nasdaq index dropped 1.1%. Anthropic stated that viewers will see a live demonstration of Claude at the event, scenarios of collaborating with Claude, as well as insights and new product announcements from company leadership. Mizuho analysts pointed out that **the market is experiencing "uneasy" sentiment ahead of Anthropic's event, which may be one reason for the recent stock sell-off.** Analysts say investors are reluctant to take risks before yet another AI product launch, as every piece of news from Anthropic is viewed as an "incremental competitive" threat to existing software, regardless of whether this perception is fair. In a research report, Mizuho analysts noted that faced with uncertainty, investors are choosing to exit the market first. > "Instead of trying to predict the outcome, investors prefer to wait and see. Selling first and asking questions later is much easier than getting caught in another wave of news-driven plunges." Analysts pointed out that this cautious attitude reflects the complex feelings the market has toward the rapid iteration of AI technologies: **on the one hand, recognizing their long-term potential, on the other, worrying about their impact on existing business models and market structures**. **Whether Anthropic’s product showcase today can ease market anxiety or further intensify competition concerns will become the market’s focal point.** ## Claude Positioned as an Enterprise "Thinking Partner" Reportedly, the target audience for Anthropic's event is enterprise executives, including Chief Information Officers, Chief Risk Officers, General Counsels, and heads of analytics—senior leaders responsible for setting AI strategies within organizations. **This indicates Anthropic is focusing on penetrating the enterprise-level market.** Anthropic positions Claude as a "thinking partner," allowing users to tackle "any major, bold, or confusing challenges." Users can deploy Claude for chatting, generating code, visualizing data, browsing the web, or creating content, among many other tasks. In terms of pricing, the annual subscription for Claude Pro is $17 per month, while monthly is $20 per month. The Max version costs $100 per month. The company stated that **Claude itself is an "all-round generalist," but when users connect their own tools, context, and knowledge, it becomes an "expert who understands your work as well as you do."** Risk Disclaimer The market has risks, and investment should be made with caution.
