Microsoft's new Copilot looks just like Claude. That's not the part that matters.

Would you trust Meta's AI agent with your inbox? My take on the Zuckerberg interview
I watched Joanna Stern's Zuckerberg interview on camera. Why trust is the issue Meta can't duck, why an AI that corrects itself isn't a feature, and why Meta gets too little credit for WhatsApp's encryption.
Meta's Muse Charm is an AI Tamagotchi. The real play is the conversation.
Meta put its Muse AI assistant on a keychain. Why gamifying the assistant is clever, why the daily conversation is the prize, and why distribution, not product, decides Meta's hardware.
Amazon blocked Meta's AI shopper. It's not about security.
Amazon cut Meta's Muse agent off its marketplace, citing security. The real threat is to the browsing, ads and impulse buys the marketplace runs on, and what every online shop should do about agentic commerce now.
I tested my new Claude skill against an agent that didn't have it — and the control group found the saving my skill missed
The skill was 35% faster and used 12% fewer tokens. The baseline agent, with no instructions at all, found €10.51 the skill walked straight past. Why the no-skill run is a second opinion, not just a scoreboard.
I replaced my Loom subscription with a single app I build myself: what Claude Code builds in an afternoon moves the buy-versus-build line
Screen capture, a camera bubble, live transcript, YouTube upload with real subtitles and chapters - all browser APIs, one local file, built with Claude Code. The constraint that looked like a bug became the best feature.
Meta's Muse, one week in: the model isn't the best, and the integrations make up for it
A week of real Muse users on Threads: everyday errands, not code, and one line that sums it up. The model isn't the best, the integrations make up for it. Why that means your context has to be tool-agnostic.
Claude just merged Chat and Cowork — the decision that disappeared, and the caveat that didn't
Chat and Cowork are now one conversation with a full agent runtime underneath. What changes for operators: no more routing, deliverables inside the chat — and the local-tasks caveat most coverage skips.
Cloudflare now lets you block AI training on your website — without disappearing from AI answers
Cloudflare's new AI Crawl Control splits one blunt setting into three switches: search, AI training, and AI agents. What the Sept 15 update changes for anyone publishing content.
Nineteen days of ad spend with no measurement: the Google Tag Manager snippet was gone from the page, not broken in the console
A purchase conversion sat at zero for nineteen days. The container was fine - the snippet had been removed by a deploy. How to pin the hour without backend access, why you must tell Smart Bidding its data is wrong, and the fourteen-day cap that makes fast detection worth money.
