How Anthropic Uses Claude

+ChatGPT To Track Santa

Hello WKND AI Warriors!

OpenAI and Accenture are teaming up to bring ChatGPT Enterprise and agentic AI deeper into the world’s biggest companies.

Also, OpenAI joined NORAD’s “Tracks Santa” program with AI tools that turn photos into elves and stories into custom Christmas adventures.

Plus, Anthropic surveyed its own engineers and found Claude boosted productivity but also raised concerns about mentorship and over-reliance.

Oh yeah, Amazon Web Services unveiled “frontier agents” that work autonomously for days to code, test, and secure applications.

📰 AI NEWS RECAP

How Anthropic Uses Claude

Anthropic just published a study on how their employees actually use AI at work. The results are worth paying attention to.

Not the marketing version. The real version. What happens when smart people have access to extremely powerful tools all day long.

Here is what they found.

AI didn’t replace the work. It stretched it. Engineers didn’t do less. They did more. Thirty percent more output on average. Not because they typed faster, but because they could explore ideas that never made it off the whiteboard before.

The shape of work changed. Junior engineers wrote production grade code sooner. Senior engineers shifted from “How do I write this?” to “What should I build next?” Work moved up the stack. Creativity expanded. Repetition shrank.

New problems showed up. People started skipping mentorship because AI felt easier than asking a colleague. Context switching increased because AI made it too easy to spin up new ideas. Quality drifted when teams relied on AI without checking the fundamentals.

Anthropic’s takeaway was simple.

AI accelerates whatever culture you already have. Good habits get stronger. Bad habits get louder.

Which brings us to the part that matters for the rest of us.

If you want AI to make your work better, build the environment first. Review systems. Knowledge sharing. Clear ownership. Honest feedback. Without those, AI just multiplies the chaos.

But with the right structure, you can do something rare. You can increase the quality of your work at the same time you increase the volume of it.

And that might be the real unlock.

Not replacing people. Not automating everything. But raising the ceiling on what humans can contribute when their tools finally match their ambition.

OpenAI and Accenture announced a major partnership to bring ChatGPT Enterprise and agentic AI deeper into large organizations. Accenture will equip tens of thousands of employees with OpenAI tools and co-build a flagship client program to help companies deploy custom AI agents across functions like customer service, finance, HR, and supply chain.

OpenAI partnered with NORAD’s “Tracks Santa” program to add three new ChatGPT-powered holiday tools on NORADSanta.org. Families can now transform photos into elf images, turn kids’ toy ideas into printable coloring pages, and co-write personalized Christmas stories, adding interactive AI fun to the annual Santa tracker.

Anthropic published a study on how AI is transforming work inside the company, surveying its own engineers about using Claude. They report big jumps in output and “full‑stack” capabilities, with 27% of Claude-assisted work being tasks that wouldn’t have happened otherwise, but also note trade-offs like reduced mentorship and worries about over-reliance on AI.

Google launched Workspace Studio, a no-code tool to design, manage, and share Gemini-powered agents across Gmail, Drive, Chat, and more. Any employee can now build “if this, then that” style automations and custom agents in minutes to handle routine workflows and connect Workspace with tools like Asana, Jira, and Salesforce.

Anthropic introduced Anthropic Interviewer, a Claude-based system for large-scale qualitative research interviews. It lets researchers define goals, then uses AI to conduct adaptive, in-depth conversations with thousands of participants, revealing how workers actually use Claude today for drafting and editing text, coding and debugging, data analysis, documentation, and automating routine administrative tasks.

A new report finds ChatGPT’s growth has slowed, with global monthly active users rising only about 5–6% from August to November 2025 to roughly 810 million. Its share of the market slipped a few points as rivals like Google’s Gemini, Perplexity, and Claude posted triple-digit growth, suggesting the chatbot may be nearing saturation without new breakout products.

Amazon Web Services unveiled “frontier agents,” a new class of autonomous AI agents that can work for hours or days without supervision. The first set includes Kiro as a virtual developer that learns your codebase, plus dedicated Security and DevOps agents to review designs, run tests, resolve incidents, and continuously improve application reliability.
