Meh, I have it integrated as a replacement for search engines at this point. I don’t even know that Claude is inherently better or if it’s more the lack of ads.

Search engines without ads exist.

Try noai.duckduckgo.com. Decent search results, actual sources, no risk of hallucination, no extreme energy cost.

To be fair, the article doesn’t quite deliver on this promise. The examples are mostly focused on improving work-related workflows, so I guess that’s what they think “daily life” is.

I don't know why this sentiment isn't more common. LLMs are basically two things: 1. chatbots 2. automation for the process of googling something and copy-pasting the first result. The only people I know who use it for more than those two things ask them to perform tasks they can't do reliably, don't check the output, and then they're just wrong most of the time. If they had just used it as slightly different google search they'd have been fine.

In claude code, there's a built-in skill `/insights` which gives you a report on how you've been using claude code and where you could improve.

Is it any good?

No, it’s superficial slop

Speaking as a big proponent of Claude code in general, which I find to be revolutionary and useful - there is no value in that report. To be honest, the people who I know who like that report are the ones who are getting sycophantically gaslit by the models more than they should.

Then…don’t? You are free to not do so, while others (like myself) can choose the opposite.

Tell that to our employers

>how, exactly, AI can be integrated into daily life.

Aka "what is it good for?"
