Nice article. I've been trying to stress to my coworkers, the bar for AI right now is not "it literally does my entire job for me with zero assistance or additional context". It's just a tool that if you learn to use correctly can dramatically speed up some tasks.

As an aside, Claude 100K looks very cool, but how many people even have access? Our CTO reached out to Anthropic directly they wouldn't even give him the time of day. It seems like if you aren't planning on spending 5 figures monthly on it it's a lost cause. I get it, but, lame.




Claude is now free for anyone (in certain countries) to use online at https://claude.ai

Their API still has an opaque waitlist though.


"Unfortunately, Claude.ai is only available in the US and UK. We're working hard to expand to other regions soon."

I got ignored but recently got access through the job, Claude is pretty good. I think I had the longest AI-assisted brainstorming session.


I think you can get limited access through poe.com, although I haven't tried it myself.
