Hi, this is my team! Happy to answer any questions.
There's a lot in this launch, but the core idea is to simplify the product while giving users access to more capabilities. You no longer need to know ahead of time how much work a conversation might involve. If you're at your computer, Claude can use your local files and apps. If you close your laptop, Claude can keep working on its own computer.
This launch also lets you use Claude Design, Claude Docs, and Claude Slides directly from conversations. That's possible because we made Artifacts much more powerful: whenever Claude makes you an app, website, design system, or anything else, it can deploy an artifact with multiplayer features and databases.
As many of you probably know from your own work, giving users more power while making the experience simpler is really, really hard. It took many iterations to get to this version. We're far from done, but I expect people will be able to do much more while having to think about it less.
I have a question about project memory. Last time I tried using Claude to organise my chats into Projects, it turned them into isolated silos. I asked a different chat to refer to what we'd discussed in the other chat, and it said it wasn't allowed to access it.
This was pretty frustrating. By trying to organise my chats, I actively made them worse. ChatGPT at least gives you the option to have either open or closed memory. Is this being considered?
