Transcript

Support for the show comes from Anthropic. Not every question comes with a clean, easy answer, and the ones that actually matter tend to come with a mix of sparks and second guessing, moments, and quiet reflection. So when you're in the middle of something like that, it helps to have a sounding board to kick ideas off and dig into what's really going on underneath. That's where Claude comes in. Claude is the AI for minds that don't stop at good enough. It's the collaborator that actually understands your entire workflow and thinks with you. Whether you're debugging code at midnight or strategizing your next business move, Claude extends your thinking to tackle the problems that matter. Plus, Claude's research capabilities go deeper than basic web search. It can have comprehensive, reliable analysis with proper citations, turning hours of research into minutes. For problems worth solving, get started with Claude today at claud.ai/vergecast. That's claud.ai/vergecast, and check out Claude Pro, which includes access to all the features mentioned in today's episode. Claud dot a I slash birch cast.
