Anthropic takes over your entire workday
The browser wars just got weird: Atlassian acquired Browser Company and killed their beloved Arc to build Dia, an AI-powered work browser (yikes). Meanwhile, Anthropic went full speed on integration mode - Claude Code hit the web for parallel coding tasks, and Claude literally embedded itself into Microsoft 365 for enterprise workflows. Adobe's not sitting still either, launching AI Foundry so enterprises can customize their own generative models. Oh, and Meta made a bold move blocking OpenAI and Perplexity bots from WhatsApp entirely - because apparently the AI monopoly is back on the menu. With Big Tech building proprietary AI into every tool you already use, are you actually choosing your AI tools or just getting herded into walled gardens?
