Anthropic is rolling out new ways for you to change how your Claude AI chatbot communicates with a new range of pre-set and custom writing styles. Instead of explaining in every prompt how you want the AI to respond, you'll be able to tailor its conversation to your needs. That means Claude will be as formal or casual, verbose or concise as you wish. It’s a major step to making talking to an AI feel more natural and more like talking to a person, in this case, a person who speaks in a way you prefer.
There are three preset options you can pick from right away. The names are pretty much on the nose. Formal style is for professional, precise responses; Concise is for shorter and direct answers; and Explanatory style is more about explaining and teaching, with extra context and details.
