Quotes

"I also tried Claude to update some graphs… It ran right out of the box, even doing a decent job of 'put text labels on the graph in a way that doesn't conflict with the plotted time series.' It went on and did things I didn't ask for, like offer summary statistics! Still, an hour job took 5 minutes… This is all old news to most of my colleagues, who are integrating AI into workflows with great speed. But if you're not using these tools, the time to start is now." — John Cochrane
