Anthropic's Claude AI imposes new file size limits, baffling users

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Users of Anthropic's Claude AI are reporting a sudden and unexplained change in file upload size limits. Previously, users could upload and download installer files around 89MB, but recently Claude has begun rejecting these files, citing a new 30MB limit. This change appears to be inconsistent, as some users can still upload larger files in unrefreshed browser windows, while others encounter the new restriction. The AI itself has acknowledged the change, noting that file sending mechanisms seem to have been altered. AI

IMPACT Potential disruption for users relying on Claude for file transfer tasks.
