I totally missed you can embed AI features directly into claude artifacts. I ran the first GPT store hackathon in NYC and I feel like people were very underwhelmed. What could you do in a custom GPT you couldn't with a shared chat? The integration felt very annoying. Claude I feel nails how easy it is to build + how easy it is to share

Note that this is new; Artifacts launched almost a year ago, but the API to call Claude from within them was added just three weeks ago.

How stable are these now?

I turned off artifacts months ago because it would:

- frequently update code incorrectly / bad edit diff

- act like it updated / created an artifact when it just did nothing

- slowly / painfully delete every single line one by one before rewriting

- use artifacts for things that shouldn't have had any code written at all

Just wasn't worth the value it provided. This was before claude code.

"Claude is kicking ChatGPT's butt" I'm guessing the OP is looking at this through the lens of more mom and pop users on the chat interface rather than the greater product line of these companies with all their dev tooling.

Claude Code is radically better than anything ChatGPT has right now. If anything it's the other way around -- ChatGPT has the mom and pop mindshare and more first-mover name recognition, but they have an objectively worse product for 'serious' users.

The extra system prompt can definitely cause some performance issues, and it can over use them. The deleting every line behavior is gone though. It's definitely not something you should turn on for every conversation, but it's quite compelling for creating little capsule web apps.

Has anyone come across any really cool artifacts? I'd be curious to see
