Meet Claude Duet, the latest AI agent intended to lighten your workload

Anthropic has announced Claude Duet, a new AI agent intended for professionals and small businesses that promises to help manage daily life. Amid competition from Meta’s Muse and OpenAI’s Dots, Anthropic on Wednesday said Claude Duet will track your messages and tasks, surfacing what it deems important, and complete tasks it's asked to perform. It’s designed to operate without supervision, but will reportedly seek permission before acting on the user’s behalf. SEE ALSO: Anthropic is pitching Congress its own AI safety bill, report says Anthropic says you can describe a task to Duet in a short message, and it’ll figure out which apps to use and the steps to take in the background. You’ll be notified when the task is done or if there’s something you need to know.
