Why it worked

The video provides immediate, high-value utility by solving a common pain point (repetitive tasks) with a clear, step-by-step demonstration of a new, impressive AI capability.

Summary

The creator demonstrates a new feature in Claude called 'Record a skill' that allows users to automate repetitive tasks by recording their screen and voice. He walks through a practical example of extracting data from a PDF to show how the tool learns and executes the task.

Transcript

Claude can now do a task once and then take over and do it for you forever going forward. Let me show you how in 30 seconds. I'm Ben Gusberg. I'm a Stanford founder of an AI startup. We've raised $4 million. Step one, open Claude Cowork, hit the plus button, pick record a skill. Step two, think of a task you do over and over again in your job. Claude records your screen and your voice, so do the task once and talk while you do it like you're training a new hire. Here's me showing Claude how to take names from a PDF. It's confusing because there are no labels and some have parentheses underneath that shouldn't be recorded, so I spoke and told Claude explicitly, do not take the parentheses. Step three, Claude then turns the recording into a skill. And next time you have to do the task, just type slash and then the skill name, Claude will take over. Here's the result I got. It was 100% correct. Apparently working with Claude is now show and tell. I'm Ben Gusberg, follow me for more on AI, founder life, and leadership.
