Google collaborates with Anthropic to improve Gemini AI using Claude

.

Google is reportedly relying on Claude, an AI model developed by Anthropic, to help improve the performance of its own AI system, Gemini. According to a report from TechCrunch, contractors hired by Google are tasked with comparing responses generated by Gemini and Claude to the same user prompts.

Their job is to evaluate the quality of the output based on factors such as truthfulness, clarity, and verbosity.

The process works like this: Contractors are shown responses from both Gemini and Claude for a specific prompt. They then have up to 30 minutes to carefully assess each answer and rate how well it meets the evaluation criteria.

This feedback helps Google identify areas where Gemini may need improvement. Interestingly, the contractors started noticing some unusual patterns during this evaluation process.

On occasions, Gemini’s output included references like, “I am Claude, created by Anthropic,” sparking curiosity about how closely the two systems might be connected.
