What this episode covers

Tuesday’s show focused on the rapid expansion of Claude across apps, platforms, and workflows, and the practical friction that shows up when people actually live inside these tools. The discussion blended breaking product news, hands-on Claude Code experience, and broader market signals around ads, chips, and real-world AI performance.
