Anthropic is upgrading Claude’s voice mode to include its high-performance Opus and Sonnet models. The update replaces the less-advanced Haiku model previously used for spoken interactions.

These top-tier models enable the AI to execute complex reasoning and nuanced tasks via voice commands. This shift positions Claude as a direct competitor to Google Assistant and OpenAI’s ChatGPT.

The integration transforms the tool into a functional assistant capable of handling sophisticated, tool-heavy requests.
