New in Claude Cowork: teach Claude a skill. Record your screen while you do a task, talk through it as you go, and Claude turns it into a skill it can run again. Find it under Record a skill in the + menu of the Claude desktop app. Available on Pro, Max, and Team plans.

Can you tell the difference? Once of these emails was stitched together using manual screenshots and alignments. The other was done by Claude Cowork. (I'm capturing email and website examples for a competitive analysis.) This would save me hours of work. Except...

And this is to say nothing of the "memory" the platform develops of your skills, habits and tendencies. When you develop a "monogamous relationship" with an AI platform, it becomes more difficult every day to switch to another.

What does OpenAI get out of this? Access to the habits journalists use every day to deliver the news, not to mention access to their IP and source information.

Ran into a wall just now that's forcing another paid upgrade. (Not a complaint—just reality.) So far I'm using Resend for user-related emails. Now I want people to notifications when new documents are added to a jurisdiction they track.
