Detailed answer

Language models are trained on large datasets collected over time. Once training is complete, the model's knowledge does not continuously update itself.

Anthropic periodically releases new versions of Claude that incorporate newer information. Between model releases, live search can help fill gaps by retrieving current web pages when available.

This means that recent company launches, announcements, and coverage may be easier for Claude to access through search than through training data alone.
