Anthropic has previously integrated Claude into Microsoft’s Excel and PowerPoint applications. The company says its AI in Word is «designed for professionals who work extensively with documents, including legal research, financial memorandum writing, and iterative editing.»
Claude for Word will allow users to ask questions about their documents and receive answers with clickable links to relevant sections.
Other features include the ability to edit selected text while preserving styles, numbering, and formatting around it, and a «track changes mode» will allow users to accept or reject each edit as an edit.

Recall that last week, Anthropic launched its powerful Mythos model in a limited release format due to concerns that it could expose previously unknown vulnerabilities in cybersecurity systems.

US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessant and Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell evencalled an emergency meeting with bank executives to warn them about the cybersecurity risks posed by Anthropic’s new artificial intelligence model.
