I find it absolutely mindblowing to witness the rate at which Anthropic can ship new features. Only a year ago I couldn't wait to see some sort of Github integration and then it appeared only a week later. Seriously impressive stuff.

Meanwhile, you still can't Sign in with Apple on the website.

But you can Sign in with Google.

If you signed up with your Apple on the iOS Claude app, to access your account on the computer, you have to open the passwords app and copy your random email address and paste it into the Claude website login.

Also if you try to copy-paste a prompt from Notes etc into the Claude chat, it gets added as an attachment, so you can't edit the prompt. If you do the four-finger shortcut to paste it as text, it mangles newlines etc.

Why are they so dumb about such basic UX for so long?

Add to the list backtick handling. If you start a backtick block on the claude web chat, you cannot leave it with the keyboard. You are now stuck between the backticks. It is as if they wanted to reproduce Slack misery.

Pressing the down arrow while inside a block exits it for me.

Apple forces developers to offer Sign in with Apple on iOS devices if any other sign in service is used. Apple can't force them to do it on non-Apple platforms.

Isn't this basically Apple's fault? When you signed up, Apple provided a fake email address in leu of your real one. This is great for privacy but means the service has the wrong email.

I'm sure they didn't want to provide an Apple sign in option at all, but it's required by App Store rules.

They clearly vibe code a lot (most? all?) of their stuff, and it shows. Elementary features are broken regularly and while I appreciate them trying new features, I'd appreciate it more if existing ones were reliable and promptly fixed if broken.

It was inevitable until the point all apps will disappear and AI will be the entry point for all work. You can see how anything required appear based on a single request. After which world models and other forms of interaction that are more dynamic will make sense and we'll need something that's not a screen.

Its a large leap from “we made a config driven diagram tool and trained an llm on that config” to “all apps will disappear”. If you’re predicting such grand claims please be more precise than “AI” which is a term we cant define.

You're harshing the vibe, man.

For sure, leave the hype profiteers alone!

Claude is broken for me since this was released, prompts are just timing out and stopping after 10 attempts

I would love to know how they built this. Did they use json-render [0], openui [1], or rolled their own?

Right-click the page and inspect the source code?

Anyone else able to use Claude with Excel? I've tried adding it to our (very small) Office365 org and it just fails. Been failing for months.

I feel like this is a feature which improves the perceived confidence of the LLM but doesn't do much for correctness of other outputs, i.e. an exacerbation of the "confidently incorrect" criticism.

Wow, I asked it to build me a simple diagram explaining agile development and it did an amazing job. Wow it felt magical to watch that diagram slowly animating to life.

Like a much prettier version of Mermaid.

Kudos, Anthropic. Geez, this is so nice.

Now I'm going to ask it to draw a diagram of a pelican riding a bicycle, why not?

drewda•28m ago

When using Claude Code, we often prompt it to draft diagrams in MermaidJS syntax.

Great for summarizing a multi-step process and quick to render with simple tools.

This is pretty neat and I am experimenting with it now, but hasn't ChatGPT had capability to create graphs and interact with data for a while? "ChatGPT advanced data analysis" for example. I'm asking in good faith as maybe some of you have been using that and can compare the two and give an informed opinion.

I usually use a lot of other tools for data analysis or write code with Claude code or another LLM to do data analysis and visualization.

Interactive slop is still slop.

razerbeans•23m ago

Interesting. So if I'm reading this correctly, this is distinctly different than the artifacts that Claude creates? If that's the case, why create it inline as opposed to an artifact? Any time I get a visual, I tend to find them so useful that I _want_ them to be an artifact that I can export and share.

I_am_tiberius•22m ago

Does anyone know which library they use? Or something developed internally?

I_am_tiberius•21m ago

Ok, asked it myself: Chart.js

I tried the periodic table in their examples using sonnet 4.6 on the $20/mo plan. After a few minutes Claude told me it reached the max message length and bailed. I pressed continue and eventually it generated the table, but it wasn't inline, it was a jsx artifact, and I've now hit my daily usage limit.

Unable to reproduce the recipe image in the iOS app. It first gave a normal text answer. Then when referencing this blog post it produced a wonky HTML artifact.
