Adam here!
Last week, we looked at ChatGPT Work.
This week, Claude Code’s desktop app now has an in-app browser. It can open websites, documentation and designs, then read, click through and interact with them.
It may sound like a small feature, but it changes the type of task you can hand over.
You no longer have to describe why a landing page feels disconnected from the campaign.
You can give AI the brief and let it inspect the page.
You can show it the current dashboard instead of explaining the reporting problem.
You can let it move through a website, form or customer journey rather than relying on screenshots and copied text.
That moves AI from working with your description of the problem to reviewing the actual work.
And it exposes a new problem:
AI can only work with what your systems show it.
If the brief is outdated, the files conflict or important decisions only exist in someone’s head, a better model will not fix that.
The advantage may not go to the business with the smartest AI.
It may go to the business with the clearest information.
Try this:
Choose one live piece of work this week: a landing page, proposal, report or campaign.
Give the AI the original brief and the finished output.
Then ask:
Compare the brief with the live output. Identify anything that is misaligned, outdated, unclear or unsupported. Prioritise the issues by business impact. Do not rewrite anything until I approve the recommendations.Use AI as a reviewer before using it as a creator.
A FEW OTHER THINGS WORTH KNOWING
META
Meta reversed an AI image feature after users pushed back
Image: Meta Newsroom
Publicly available does not always mean people expect their content to be reused.
Meta’s Muse Image initially allowed people to generate or alter images using photos from public Instagram accounts. The feature sparked immediate concerns about consent because account owners were not automatically notified when their images were used.
Meta has since pulled the feature following the backlash.
The lesson for businesses is not that people reject AI-generated content.
It is that consent and trust still matter..
CURSOR
Cursor may be moving beyond coding
Specialist AI tools are starting to compete for the rest of your workday.
Cursor is reportedly developing a more general-purpose AI agent that could respond to emails and messages, organise spreadsheets and still handle engineering work.
It is another sign that specialist AI tools are expanding into broader workplace assistants.
The lines between coding tools, productivity tools and general AI agents are becoming much less clear.
AI VERIFICATION
Google’s AI watermark helped expose a viral fake
As AI images become harder to spot, checking their origin may matter more than trusting your eyes.
A viral image that appeared to show US Senator Mitch McConnell in a hospital bed was recently identified as AI-generated after fact-checkers detected Google’s invisible SynthID watermark.
SynthID is embedded into content created with supported Google AI tools, giving platforms and fact-checkers another way to verify where an image came from.
It will not identify every AI-generated image, especially those created using tools that do not use the watermark.
But it shows what online verification may increasingly look like:
Not asking whether an image looks real.
Checking whether there is evidence of how it was made.
TWEETS OF THE WEEK
AI SYSTEMS LAB
Last week inside AI Systems Lab, we looked at how small businesses can use Claude Cowork to move beyond getting answers and start delegating complete outcomes.
We covered recurring workflows, connected tools, cloud tasks that keep running after you close your laptop, and the guardrails needed when AI is working with client files, money or public content.
The takeaway was simple:
Claude can assemble the work. You still remain the judge.
If you want more practical examples, prompts and live walkthroughs like this, joining the AI Systems Lab community is a great place to start.
ONE LAST THING…
The last quarter has been a big one.
A lot of flights, unexpected invitations, long days working between hotel rooms and airport lounges, and a few moments that still don’t feel entirely real.
I shared a little reflection on it here:
See you next week,
Adam
