Reddit.com 上的一位用户对 Claude 的搜索功能表示不满,尽管该公司估值高达约 9650 亿美元。该用户指出,搜索功能并非实验性技术,Gmail、Slack 和 Notion 等众多产品都已证明,搜索大量历史信息是知识产品的核心组成部分。他们建议该公司应优先修复搜索功能,而非增加新的、可能只使用一次的华而不实的功能。
Seriously, can someone explain why Claude's chat search is still so bad?
I don't mean "search is occasionally imperfect." I mean I want to find a conversation I had about a specific topic, search for words and phrases I know were in it, and Claude simply can't find it.
This is particularly frustrating because I use Claude for substantial ongoing work. Over time, I've had long conversations where we've researched a subject, developed ideas, solved problems, analysed information and built up useful context.
Then, weeks or months later, I want to go back and reuse that knowledge.
But apparently that's too much to ask?
Instead, I'm left starting another conversation and re-explaining or rebuilding the same context from scratch, while knowing there's potentially a huge amount of relevant work sitting somewhere in my own chat history that I can't reliably retrieve.
And I have to ask the slightly cynical question: why isn't this a much bigger priority for Anthropic?
A genuinely good search function would make it far easier for users to reuse knowledge they've already generated with Claude. That potentially means fewer new conversations, fewer repeated questions and less token usage rebuilding context we've already paid to create.
I'm not accusing Anthropic of deliberately making search bad to drive more usage. But I genuinely want to know: what is the technical or product reason this hasn't been fixed?
We're talking about a company valued at roughly $965 billion. Search is not some experimental frontier technology. Gmail, Slack, Notion and countless other products have shown that searching through large volumes of your own historical information is a core part of a useful knowledge product.
For me, the inability to reliably retrieve past work is becoming one of Claude's biggest weaknesses.
Does anyone else have this problem? And has Anthropic actually acknowledged that chat search is inadequate or said anything about improving it?
Because at this point, I'd honestly rather they spent time fixing this than adding another flashy feature I might use once.
