Everybody is using Claude Code (for more than code!)
The Vibe coding trend has led to the rise of Claude Code that changes our no-code future as a civilization.
With Claude Opus 4.5 likely to be released soon, Anthropic is the BigAI play with the most opportunity to accelerate ARR growth in the next 18 months and the likely major winner in 2026. I am doing a series with guest contributors on using Claude. This is the third edition:
1st: Claude Code is growing crazy fast, and it’s not just for writing code ⌨
2nd: Claude Code Skills Just Changed Everything About AI Assistants
3rd: Everybody is using Claude Code (for more than code!)
If you know someone who is interested in using Claude Code, these guides might be interesting for them.
The themes I’m most interested in are the rise of Claude Code and new features like Agent skills (the 4th article in the series coming soon), utility connecting it to Excel, memory and so forth. Claude’s automatic ‘memory’ upgrade is coming to Pro and Max subscribers that is of course an update for Claude that will let the AI chatbot “remember” past conversations without prompting. Max subscribers have been able to turn on Claude’s “memory” in their settings as of October 23rd.
As Anthropic’s laser focus on Corporate customers and Enterprise AI flourishes, its products will be without peer as it leads in AI coding capabilities and generalized utility at the office. Using Google Cloud TPUs and with Alphabet and Amazon both having large stakes gives it many advantages.

🦢 The American mirror called ChatGPT is displaying rather disturbing state of Mental Health among its users: where over 1 million people a week actively talk about suicide. The company says a similar percentage of users show “heightened levels of emotional attachment to ChatGPT” which is likely a feature and not a bug.

Qualcomm officially unveiled a new line of AI chips on October 27, 2025, marking its entry into the data center AI inference market to challenge leaders like Nvidia and AMD. The chips, named AI200 and AI250, are designed for rack-scale systems that can fill an entire liquid-cooled server rack, leveraging Qualcomm’s mobile chip expertise for efficient AI performance.
More Nvidia Competitors will rise in 2026
The AI chip market is a huge market mainly dominated by Nvidia (93%) and AMD (6%). Can Qualcomm, ARM, Cambricon Technologies or Huawei change that? It will be one of the biggest stories to watch in 2026.
AI200: Expected availability in 2026, focused on high-performance AI inference.
AI250: Slated for 2027, building on the AI200 with enhanced capabilities.
Partnerships: Qualcomm announced a deal with Humain, a Saudi-backed AI company, as its first customer.

Imagine having a personal AI assistant on your computer that can actually use your computer. You could organize your digital life, analyze your files, and even improve your writing. You could finally break free from chat in a browser.
That’s the promise of Claude Code, Anthropic’s AI coding tool that turns out to be a secret weapon for all kinds of tasks, even if you’re not a programmer. Despite the name, Claude Code isn’t only used by software professionals. In this guide, we’ll explore what Claude Code is, why it’s more powerful than a typical web chatbot for everyday tasks, how to get it running, and concrete examples of using Claude Code to simplify non-code workflows like meeting notes, PC maintenance, file organization, and writing.
What is Claude Code?
Claude Code is an AI assistant that you run on your own computer rather than in a web chat window. It was originally built to help developers as a sort of AI pair programmer that can read and modify code. But its capabilities go far beyond writing code. The key is to forget the word “Code” in its name and instead think of it as “Claude on my computer.” It uses Anthropic’s Large Language models under the hood, giving you Claude’s intelligence with even more powers.
Unlike a web-based chatbot, Claude Code can directly interact with your computer’s files, folders, and tools. It runs in your terminal, where you can have a conversational session, but with the ability to execute commands, edit or create files, and perform actions on your behalf.
