The Artificial Intelligence market in Brazil is expanding, especially with the introduction of Claude, a chatbot created by Anthropic. Claude aims to rival ChatGPT by producing more human-like and fluid texts for users.
What sets Claude apart?
ChatGPT is recognized for its structured text, which may appear rigid. In contrast, Claude is known for its flexibility in writing style, resulting in more human-like texts that are not limited by standard formats. This quality can enhance interactions with AI, making them more enjoyable and comprehensible.
After a year of testing in the US, Anthropic opted to broaden Claude’s reach to other areas such as Brazil. Initially, Claude’s performance in Portuguese lagged behind that in English. Nevertheless, recent technological advancements have addressed this issue. Mike Krieger, co-founder of Instagram and product director at Anthropic, conveyed that the team dedicated significant effort to enhance Claude’s proficiency across various languages.
Claude is already accessible in approximately 175 nations. In Portugal, where it debuted in May of this year, the AI was lauded for its writing capabilities, drawing from trustworthy sources and providing clear explanations. These qualities suggest the potential for Claude to deliver a top-notch service in Brazil as well.
Is there no cost?
Claude currently provides a complimentary version for users to try out its newest AI model, Claude 3.5 Sonnet, which has been described as outperforming GPT-4 and Gemini in language and reasoning assessments but struggles with mathematical problems.
Anthropic provides paid plans starting at R$ 100 for users seeking enhanced access, which is seen as a reasonable cost for those interested in experiencing the benefits of this innovative technology. Additionally, Claude is conveniently accessible through Android and iOS apps, as well as its web platform, ensuring easy access across various devices.

Elon Musk and Minister Alexandre de Moraes are in an ongoing conflict, leading SpaceX to remove its employees from Brazil and the STF to freeze Starlink accounts.
SpaceX relocates its staff and advises against traveling to Brazil.
An internal memo from the President of SpaceX, Gwynne Shotwell, has prompted officials to refrain from traveling to Brazil in the near future due to escalating tensions between Musk and Brazilian authorities following his defiance of the Supreme Court’s orders, as reported by the Wall Street Journal.

Disney+ will start restricting shared passwords among individuals not residing in the same place in Brazil from November 12, following Netflix’s lead. This policy is currently in effect in Canada, the United States, and the United Kingdom, and Brazilian users have started receiving notifications about the change.
Disney+ is set to put an end to the practice of sharing passwords.
Disney+ will verify the subscriber’s location by analyzing account activity, internet connection, and devices employed, ensuring that household members can continue to access the service without disruption.
In the United States, there is a current feature allowing for an extra fee to include users from different households in the plan. This feature is expected to be extended to other countries, such as Brazil, soon. This means that sharing the account will be possible by paying an additional fee for each extra residence.
Each additional subscriber to Netflix incurs an additional fee of R$ 12.90. Disney+ might consider implementing a similar approach in Brazil.

Amazon Prime was introduced in Brazil in 2019, offering quick and complimentary delivery of a wide range of products. The platform has made significant investments in its infrastructure to enhance its services, which now include entertainment options such as Prime Video, Amazon Music Prime, and special events like Prime Day.
The Prime Video service is notable for its exclusive Amazon content like The Lord of the Rings: The Power Rings and The Boys, as well as live sports and collaborations with Globo, Max, and Telecine.
Starting in 2025, Prime Video in Brazil will feature advertisements on its content, as announced by Amazon. The company assures that the advertising volume will be significantly lower than that of traditional television or other streaming services. Subscribers will have the option to choose an ad-free plan, the pricing of which will be revealed later. The current subscription fee for Prime will remain unchanged initially.
Other streaming services already contain advertisements.
This trend in the streaming market, similar to strategies used by other major companies, is exemplified by Disney+ introducing a budget-friendly plan in Brazil that incorporates advertisements. It could be a compelling choice for those looking for cost-effective options, but it’s important to consider how the ads may affect the viewing experience of films and series.

Netflix is another platform that has adopted this approach, providing a lower-cost alternative with advertisements to entice new subscribers while also maintaining advertising income. To learn more about whether opting for the ad-supported Netflix plan is a good choice, click here.
