Claude Cowork, developed by Anthropic, represents a major shift in how people interact with artificial intelligence at work. Instead of complex command-line tools or heavy technical setup, Claude Cowork allows users to create AI-powered agents that manage tasks, files, and workflows—without writing code.

In this episode, Mitch Ashley and Brad Shimmin break down what Claude Cowork is, why it matters, and how it lowers the barrier for non-technical professionals to adopt AI coworkers. They explore how agent-based workflows are evolving, what this means for productivity tools, and why usability—not just raw capability—is becoming the differentiator in enterprise AI.

The conversation also looks at the growing role of analytics in AI-driven workflows and why audience feedback is essential as these tools continue to mature. 👇 Join the discussion and share how you’d use an AI coworker in your day-to-day work.

Software development is changing fast as AI becomes embedded directly into how code is written, planned, and shipped.

Java and Python continue to dominate, but tooling, workflows, and expectations for engineers are evolving just as quickly. In this conversation, Mitch Ashley and Brad Shimmin break down what’s actually changing beneath the hype.

From AI-powered developer tools and spec-driven development to the renewed importance of open-source collaboration, this episode looks at the real challenges and opportunities shaping modern software engineering.

Adaptability, not just language choice, is becoming the defining skill for developers navigating what comes next.
