Anthropic upgrades Claude’s memory to attract AI switchers
Summary
Anthropic has updated Claude to make switching from other AI chatbots easier by adding memory features to the free plan and creating tools to import user data from competitors like ChatGPT and Gemini. These updates let users transfer the context and conversation history their previous AI already knows about them, so they don't have to re-teach Claude the same information.
