Click 'Next'.



Click 'Next'.

◆I tried using Claude
To chat with Claude, just enter the text in the input field and click the send button. This time, I entered 'What should I have for lunch today?' and clicked the send button.



Then, he suggested gyudon and curry.



They also answered questions about desserts. The waiting time for an answer is short and you can have a quick conversation.



Claude can also output code. When I asked him to write a code to output 'Hello, World!' in C, he wrote the code and even provided an explanation.



Claude also supports input such as text files and PDF files. To upload a file, just drag and drop the file into the chat input field. As a test, I tried dragging and dropping the

Rashomon text file downloaded from Aozora Bunko.



When you drag and drop a file, the file name and size will be displayed in the chat input field.



Enter 'Summary the contents of this text file' and click the Send button.



It will then summarize the contents of the text file. However, if you look closely at the summary, the content is completely different from Rashomon. Please be careful as Claude may give incorrect answers.
