#542I need to go and do some proper timings but for comparable questions and inputs this feels a lot faster. Possible I’m just being beguiled by the UI but it does seem as though the responses are coming back faster.
Is it possible this gets access to a faster API tier?

#543Hi, Felix from the team here, this is my product - let us know what you think. We're on purpose releasing this very early, we expect to rapidly iterate on it. (We're also battling an unrelated Opus 4.5 inference incident right now, so you might not see Cowork in your client right away.)
Why do all similar demos show “prep the deck” use case as if everybody is building power point slides all day long?
that's what people who allocate corp budgets understand well

#544Earlier quoted context omitted.
Right and I assume we will have BO police at the gates to these trains? People love their cars not because they’re enthusiasts
That seems like a somewhat ridiculous objection. Should everybody start owning their own private planes to avoid people with BO at airplanes?
No, but if they could, they would. That’s what’s being debated here. Whether people would, not should.

Should we restructure society so that having a private airplane is easier and cheaper, but if you don't have one you'll have serious trouble in daily life?

#546It’s kind of funny that apparently most of work that’s left after you automated software development is summarizing meetings and building slide decks.
> you automated software development
very far from being true

#547When I need to create something like a powerpoint or whatever I use claude code and invoke a claude skill that knows how to do it. Why would I use claude cowork instead of that?

#548It's really quite amazing that people would actually hook an AI company up to data that actually matters. I mean, we all know that they're only doing this to build a training data set to put your business out of business and capture all the value for themselves, right?
It's either that, or you are 100X slower for not using Claude Code. The manpower per hour savings are most likely more worth it than protecting some inputs.
You could also always run a local LLM like GLM for sensitive documents or information on a separate computer, and never expose that to third party LLMs.
You also need to remember that if you hire regular employees that they are still untrustworthy at a base level. There needs to be some obfuscation anyway since they can steal your data/info too as a human. Very common case especially when they run off to China or something to clone your company where IP laws don't matter.

#549Since it is an agent, I wonder why they didn’t go with “Claude Coworker” instead.
On the other hand, it’s not “Claude Coder”, then it’s at least consistent.

#550Can humans do nothing now? Is it harder to organise your desktop? I thought Apple already organises them into stacks. (edit: Apple already does this) Is it that hard to check your calendar? Also feels insincere to have a meeting of say 30 mins to show a claude made deck that you did it in 4 seconds.
Can humans do nothing now? Is it that hard to pick the potatoes yourself? You already planted them in rows (nature already does this). is it that hard to water them yourself? also feels insincere to tell your neighbor you grew those potatoes when a machine did everything.
Yeah lets compare organising a desktop with planting potatoes. Tractors didn't need subscription, entire thing was owned by you. Automation in agriculture started the income inequality we still see today as Rich landowners didnt need to pay many people. Later the fertilizers and industrial agriculture led to dust bowls. But yeah it was all good right?
