Introduction of Web Browsing in Claude

Anthropic has finally added web browsing capabilities to Claude, which was a highly anticipated feature that many users had been waiting for. Previously, the absence of this functionality had led to frustrations and limited the model's usability for various tasks, prompting some to recommend against using it. The addition of web browsing allows Claude to fetch real-time information and provide more relevant responses by summarizing online content. However, this feature is currently only available in preview mode and exclusively for paid users in the United States.
