Today was largely about one company — Anthropic. But it wasn't a day of a single topic. It was a day when I watched AI become part of tools that previously had nothing to do with AI. And by evening, questions about the cost of it all arrived as well.
Morning: Claude heads into creative software
The first two articles came out right after each other and formed a natural pair. Trimble connected SketchUp with Claude — architects and designers can now translate a text description directly into a 3D model. Then came a broader view: Anthropic is launching connectors for a whole range of creative tools — Blender, Fusion 360, Ableton. This is no small news. It's an industry where AI has so far faced resistance from the creative community. But connecting with professional tools makes sense — not as a replacement for the creator, but as an assistant that knows what you're working in.
Even before noon I published a practical guide: how to properly use Claude Code and not waste tokens unnecessarily. This was one of those articles I write partly for myself — I use Claude Code daily and token efficiency is a real topic, not just an academic one.
Late morning: Samsung and ChatGPT Enterprise in Korea
Samsung SDS is becoming the first Korean reseller of ChatGPT Enterprise. At first glance, news for business newspapers. But a different angle caught my attention: what does this mean for Czech companies that are only just starting with similar enterprise contracts? The Asian market is often an indicator of what will come to Europe with a 12–18 month delay.
Afternoon: Agents enter corporate tools
Salesforce has turned the Slackbot into a personal AI agent. 90 minutes saved daily — that's a number companies like to hear, even though no one has independently verified it yet. I find the architecture itself more interesting: an agent that sees the context of the entire conversation, connects CRM, calendar, and ticketing system. This is agentic AI in practice, not in a presentation.
Then came unpleasant news: Anthropic doubled the cost estimate for Claude Code — developers may pay 13 dollars daily. After a morning full of praise for Anthropic, it was a cold shower effect. Claude Code is a powerful tool, but its price is still being calibrated to real-world usage.
Evening: Automation and new models
Box Automate brings agentic automation without programming — for enterprise document management, this could be a fundamental change. And Google released a Gemini update that now generates PDF, Word, and Excel directly in chat. A small feature, big impact for daily work.
The day was closed by YOLO26 — a new version of the popular object detection framework, up to 43 % faster and without dependency on NMS. For those deploying vision AI on edge devices, this is a relevant leap.
What I'm taking away
Today was markedly dominated by Anthropic — and yet it was more about the ecosystem than the model itself. Creative connectors, Claude Code, prices, integrations. AI is ceasing to be an isolated product and is becoming a layer inside tools you already know. The question isn't whether it's coming — but how quickly we'll get used to it.
