Anthropic updates Claude voice mode with more capable models

Anthropic has expanded its Claude voice mode capabilities, allowing users to select from the Opus, Sonnet, and Haiku models, a significant upgrade from the previous Haiku-only restriction. This update introduces tool-use functionality, enabling voice interactions to integrate with external applications such as Gmail, Google Calendar, Slack, Canva, and Notion for tasks like rescheduling meetings and drafting emails. The feature is available in beta across all platforms and supports ten languages, including English, French, German, Hindi, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, and Spanish. While paid users can access the full suite of models and multiple app connections, free users remain limited to the Haiku model and a single connected application. This development positions Claude competitively against OpenAI’s voice mode, which currently lacks comparable tool-use capabilities despite recent updates to its conversational style and the launch of ChatGPT Health in the US.

Madonna, Shakira and BTS to headline World Cup final half-time show

FIFA has confirmed that Madonna, Shakira, and BTS will headline the first-ever half-time show at a men’s World Cup final, curated by Coldplay’s Chris Martin. Scheduled for 19 July at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, the performance aims to raise $100 million for the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund. This marks a significant shift in the tournament’s entertainment strategy for the expanded 48-team competition, which begins on 11 June across the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The announcement follows precedents set by the 2024 Copa America final and the recent FIFA Club World Cup final, both of which featured extended half-time spectacles.
