European Parliament taps US-based AI company for archives bot
It is designed to greatly reduce document search time.
The European Parliament’s archives are now more searchable thanks to a generative AI tool from Anthropic, a U.S.-based company.
Users can enter a question on a dedicated webpage, where a chatbot powered by Anthropic’s text generator Claude 3.0 returns with requested summaries, documents or references from the Parliament’s archives from 1952-94.
Anthropic claims in a press release that the bot reduces document search time by 80 percent and can handle 10 times more queries per month than the previous search method.
The Parliament says it adds extra context to the AI model by selecting keywords from a query and then looking for relevant documents.
When using the tool, a disclaimer states that “the response provided is the result of generative AI and is not an official stance of the European Parliament.”
The European Commission is also rolling out a separate generative AI tool, GPT@EC, to help Commission staff draft policy documents.
