Summary: Yesterday I was at the AI for the Rest of Us conference in London giving a workshop, so apologies for missing the stream. But we're back with some genuinely exciting news: Anthropic just dropped Skills for Claude. These are essentially compartmentalised instruction sets that Claude can pull from when needed, rather than clogging up your context window with everything at once. Think of them like portable expertise packets where you can build skills for brand guidelines, tone of voice, specific workflows, and they work across Claude chat, Claude Code, and the API. I've literally just got access myself, so I'll be testing them properly over the weekend, but the potential here is massive. No more dumping enormous system prompts into every chat.
On the less cheerful side of things, we've got another cautionary tale about AI misuse. A barrister was caught using ChatGPT to prepare legal research and cited cases that simply didn't exist. Then he tried to hide it, which went about as well as you'd expect. This comes right after the Deloitte debacle where they charged the Australian government $440,000 for a report full of hallucinations. The message is clear: AI is brilliant, but you absolutely must verify outputs, especially in high-stakes situations. It's not an AI problem, it's a human problem. Also worth noting, Wikipedia's seeing an 8% drop in traffic as people increasingly get information via AI chatbots trained on their content. Interesting times ahead for how we value and sustain human-created knowledge.
