AI NEWS

ANTHROPIC

Claude can now respond with charts, diagrams & other visuals.

Claude can now respond with charts, diagrams, and other visuals directly inside the chat. Instead of only writing text answers, Claude can now show information using simple visuals to help people understand things faster.

  • Claude can create charts, diagrams, and other visuals directly inside the conversation. If a visual helps explain the answer, Claude can generate it automatically.

  • You can ask Claude to change the chart or diagram after it appears. For example, you can change the chart type, add more data, or simplify the diagram.

  • Some visuals are interactive. You can adjust numbers or settings and the visual updates so you can see how the results change.

  • This is useful when working with datasets, reports, or complex topics. Instead of describing something with text, Claude can show it with a visual.

  • Visual answers make it easier to learn, analyze data, and explain ideas clearly in reports, lessons, or presentations.

AI AND INNOVATION

Google Gemini is now in Google maps

Google Maps just added a new AI feature called “Ask Maps.” It is powered by Google Gemini. It also brings a new immersive navigation view that makes directions easier to see and follow.

Details:

  • You can now ask Google Maps questions in normal language. The AI will show places and suggestions directly on the map.

  • Gemini looks at reviews, photos, and map data. It then recommends restaurants, attractions, and other places you may like.

  • Google Maps now has an upgraded immersive view. It shows roads, buildings, and landmarks in 3D.

  • Navigation will also highlight lanes, traffic lights, and crosswalks. This helps drivers prepare for turns earlier.

  • The Gemini features are rolling out first on Android and iOS. More regions will get it later.
