    The use case for this addition is that users can now add keywords they wish to exclude or remove from their copies.

     

    You input the excluded keywords, and AI will not use those specific keywords in the generated copy. This way, you can avoid using various buzzwords, competitor names, etc.

  10. Introducing the Claude-2 Model Integration

    Wondering how Claude-2 is different from GPT-4?

     

    TL;DR

    GPT-4: More creative, generates results comparatively slower, can look at around 25k words

    Claude-2: Comprehensive, focus on accuracy, can look at around 75k words

     

    Imagine you have two super smart robot friends, GPT-4 and Claude-2. They both can do some cool things, but they're also a bit different.

     

    GPT-4 is like the kid in your class who's really good at understanding and answering questions. It can even understand pictures and write about them! It's like having a friend who can help you with your homework, write stories, and even make jokes. But the most amazing thing about GPT-4 is that it can remember a lot of words - up to 25,000 words! That's like remembering every word in a small book!

     

    On the other hand, Claude-2 is like the kid who can remember everything from a big book! It can remember up to 75,000 words, which is three times more than GPT-4. This makes Claude-2 really good at understanding big stories or complicated problems.

     

    But just like us, these robot friends are not perfect. Sometimes, they can make mistakes or say things that don't make sense. And while GPT-4 can understand pictures, Claude-2 can't do that yet.

     

    So, which one is better? Well, it depends on what you need. If you want a friend who can understand and write about pictures, then GPT-4 is your go-to buddy. But if you need someone who can remember a lot of words and help with coding, then Claude-2 is your best bet.
