Impact
This update elevates Claude.ai's competitive standing against ChatGPT's Code Interpreter by offering in-browser JavaScript execution for immediate, private data analysis. Running computations client-side enhances data privacy and reduces latency, appealing to enterprise and data-sensitive users. While the feature currently faces file size limitations, Anthropic is working to address these to further broaden its utility.
