In this episode, we discuss Anthropic's expanded computer use capabilities for Claude, allowing it to directly control macOS desktops and navigate apps like a virtual coworker. We also cover Claude Code's new auto mode, which lets the AI self-approve low-risk actions during coding sessions to keep developers in flow. Then we break down GitHub's controversial policy update that will use Copilot user interactions to train AI models starting April 2026, and what opt-out options are available. Finally, we explore Google's release of Gemini 3.1 Flash Live, a voice-native AI model built for real-time conversational experiences with minimal latency. From Anthropic's push toward OS-level AI autonomy to Google's competitive move in voice AI, this episode covers the latest developments shaping how we interact with AI tools.
