The SaaSpocalypse: Why Anthropic Just Wiped Out $300B
The ground just shifted. On February 3, 2026, nearly $300 billion in equity vanished in a single trading session. This wasn't a scandal—it was the launch of 11 open-source agentic plugins from Anthropic that don't just "talk," they act.
In this briefing, we break down:
* Agentic vs. Assistive: Why "Driving the Car" is different from just "Writing an Email".* Pixel Counting: How the new Claude co-work platform literally "sees" and "clicks" your screen.* The Model Context Protocol (MCP): The "Universal Translator" that lets AI organize your messy local data.* Dario Amodei’s Warning: Why 50% of white-collar jobs are at risk within 5 years as AI builds its own successors.

00:54 – What is "Agentic" AI? (The End of Chatbots)
01:17 – Pixel Counting: How Claude Drives Your Machine
