You're just glancing over every single niche they've tried to launch and failed to get any traction on.

The only one that stuck and was revenue generating has been code and Chinese models are pretty much on par.

The situation in math is rapidly evolving. Don't see why it shouldn't eventually spill to other fields at least to a degree.

This isn't true. I personally know a company that has trained over 300 companies this year to use Claude Cowork mostly for "business operations" type tasks.

People love offloading boring, repetitive tasks to it. And the spend is spending - most start on a free plan and after 3 months have multiple people on the Teams plans.

There isn't even an open source harness that is close to Cowork. ChatGPT work is closest, but everything else if coding focused and a mess for people who aren't coders.

Shall we go through the list.

I’ll start - Claude for finance.
