AI adoption stalls for lack of trained workers, not technology. While businesses wait for a manual that never arrives, China teaches AI skills from elementary school onward. The real gap isn't algorithms—it's who learns to work alongside them.
OpenAI's company knowledge mode connects workplace apps to ChatGPT—but the real test is whether enterprises will expose their entire institutional memory to AI. The feature points toward governed knowledge bases, yet arrives with manual toggles and gaps Microsoft solved months ago.
Good Morning from San Francisco, Anthropic just secured a million AI chips from Google in a deal worth tens of
Explore our comprehensive review on Anthropic's Claude 3.7, highlighting its limited usability and factors contributing to its disappointing performance.
Anthropic's Claude 3.7 launched with fanfare but quickly hit turbulence. Users report persistent technical issues hampering daily use.
Extended thinking mode, touted as a breakthrough feature, creates more problems than solutions for many. The feature overcomplicates simple tasks while burning through valuable time.
Despite efforts to enhance accuracy, Claude 3.7 occasionally exhibits a creative flair in generating fictitious references. The official system card acknowledges a 0.31% rate of outputs containing knowingly hallucinated information. In some cases, the model fabricates plausible statistics and sources, even compiling an extensive "Works Cited" section filled with non-existent references.
Users have echoed these concerns. One Reddit user, relying on AI for writing support in the humanities, noted that Claude habitually invents scholarly references with fake authors and publications. Even with explicit instructions to use only real sources, the model's "fixes" often reduce but do not eliminate fabricated citations.
"I was checking for the update obsessively," admits one power user who codes with Claude 25 hours weekly. "Now I've switched back to the previous version after wasting days on failed projects."
Technical glitches plague the rollout. Users face connection errors, high server loads, and broken export tools. Anthropic's own status page confirmed elevated error rates shortly after launch.
Why this matters:

Anthropic secured Google's largest chip deal—up to 1M TPUs worth tens of billions—while keeping Amazon as primary partner. The rare multi-cloud strategy gives the startup leverage both clouds typically demand for themselves. Can neutrality scale?
OpenAI bought the team behind Sky, a Mac assistant that actually controls your apps. It's a move from answering questions to doing work—and puts pressure on Apple's automation story. Integration timing and privacy details will decide if it sticks.
GM is removing Apple CarPlay from all future vehicles despite data showing 80% of buyers demand it. The automaker bets billions in subscription revenue will outweigh customer backlash—a wager that could reshape how Detroit values market fit against margin expansion.
