Anthropic merges Claude Chat and Cowork, enhancing agent capabilities

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

The change, which includes the launch of Claude Docs and Claude Slides, aims to reduce friction and enable Claude to handle more of the workload, though it also raises questions about agent permissions and user control over sensitive actions.
