Anthropic’s Claude Can Now Create Interactive Visuals Directly in Conversations

Anthropic’s Claude Can Now Create Interactive Visuals Directly in Conversations

Published by skeptic

Anthropic’s Claude chatbot has been updated with support for inline visual content that will help it provide clearer answers. Claude can now create custom visuals like charts, graphs, and diagrams. Visual content will be used when it better conveys an answer than plain text, and visual aids can also include real-world data like weather and recipes as long as web search is enabled. The visuals that Claude creates are distinct from Artifacts, and use HTML and SVG rather than image generation. Claude is able to display current weather conditions and forecasts when users ask about the weather in specific locations, and it can provide formatted recipe cards that are easier to follow than a block of text. Weather and recipe data are only available on the desktop for now, because those visuals do not render in the iOS app. Anthropic says that Claude is also able to ask structured questions using interactive multiple choice inputs instead of requiring users to type a response. Claude will use visuals when an answer calls for it, but users …

Intranasal 5-MeO-DMT effects peak within 15 minutes and lack strong visuals, study finds

Intranasal 5-MeO-DMT effects peak within 15 minutes and lack strong visuals, study finds

Published by José Betancourt

A study examining subjective experiences after intranasal application of 5-MeO-DMT found that its effects peak 8-15 minutes after application. Consciousness-altering effects typically ended after 45-60 minutes. The research was published in Scientific Reports. 5-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine or 5-MeO-DMT is a naturally occurring psychedelic compound belonging to the tryptamine class. It is found in certain plants and in the venom of the Incilius alvarius (Sonoran Desert toad), as well as produced synthetically. The substance is known for producing extremely intense and short-lasting altered states of consciousness. Its effects typically include profound changes in perception, a strong sense of ego dissolution, and altered awareness of time and self. Compared to DMT, the effects of 5-MeO-DMT are less visual but more immersive and abstract. Users report the experience as emotionally powerful and sometimes overwhelming. Research interest in 5-MeO-DMT has increased due to its potential relevance for understanding consciousness and mental health. However, scientific evidence on its therapeutic effects and risks is still limited. Study author Anna O. Ermakova and her colleagues wanted to understand the experiences of individuals participating in …
