<p>Anthropic rolled out computer use for Claude Code and Cowork. Claude can now open files, manage the browser, run dev tools - essentially, work with any application like a human.</p>
<p>The feature is currently in research preview, available on macOS for Pro and Max subscribers. Windows is promised in a few weeks.</p>
<p>It works particularly interestingly with Dispatch - you can send a task from your phone, and Claude will execute it on your Mac while you're away. Files remain local, nothing goes to Anthropic's servers.</p>
<p>Important limitations: Claude moves slowly and deliberately, significantly slower than a human for now. Plus, it asks for permission before every action. Anthropic recommends not using the feature for handling sensitive data.</p>
<p>The entire computer use direction is still in its early stages, but the direction is clear - from a chat AI assistant to an AI that actually works on your computer.</p>
