Anthropic recently published what they describe as the largest qualitative study of AI users ever conducted . Over one week in December, they personally interviewed 80,508 Claude users across 159 countries and 70 languages. Paying attention now? Only kidding. Actually Claude did the interviews . Instead of structured surveys, their AI-powered interviewer was given a comprehensive system prompt and…
I've often absent-mindedly wondered how far you can get by giving Claude (specifically Claude Code/Cowork) a difficult task, a way to verify it, and then just telling it to go ham. There was a time when this was difficult to do without a headache or without inviting every overzealous teenage hacker to your doorstep. To do it you needed a separate computer, or a VPS, plus maybe a firewall depending…
One of the top items on my agentic AI wishlist is to surface posts that I am interested in, to cut down on the time I spend scrolling through the contagion we call social media. I guess I enjoy it a little too much though, because try as I might, I haven't done more than curating and cleaning up my timeline. I find that I am now encountering more tech, AI, and local news than the typical "world is…
Futurism reported on a study by Graphite , an SEO firm, that analyzed 65,000 English-language articles published between January 2020 and May 2025. As of May 2025, 52% of new articles were flagged as AI-generated. That number was around 10% when ChatGPT launched in late 2022. This number doesn't surprise me, and if you are familiar with the signs of AI writing , it's not likely to surprise you…
I keep trying to get my friends and colleagues and really everyone I know who still swears by ChatGPT to switch to Claude. Not for political reasons, though I do find myself more aligned with Anthropic's constitution and code of ethics. That said, I believe, at least as of March 2026, that Claude is the clear winner for any work that involves writing, problem-solving, or technical analysis.…
Thanks to a reddit post on r/ClaudeAI , I just learned about Anthropic Academy . Basically, Anthropic publishes a few professional-level free courses on the Skilljar LMS. Each course is extremely well put together. Currently, the offerings include: Claude Code in Action: Integrate Claude Code into your development workflow Claude 101: Learn how to use Claude for everyday work tasks, understand…
When you read something, you probably make a subconscious assumption. You assume a person sat down, thought for a while, wrote stuff, deleted stuff, restructured the rest, and hit publish when it felt ready. You don't think about this assumption because it's been true since we began carving portraits on the walls of caves. Unfortunately, it isn't true anymore, and the tools we have to deal with…
This site has been a long time coming. I've been meaning to consolidate everything I'm working on into one place for years, and I've finally gotten around to it. For the nerds I built this site using the Eleventy static site generator. Why Eleventy? It feels like I've tried every moderately popular SSG, plus a few of the lesser-known ones. I currently have sites running under Nikola and Cobalt . I…
