Ask a question in plain English. Your agent finds the right tools and delivers the answer.
Search LinkedIn, Twitter, and the news for mentions of Anthropic from the past week. Summarise the overall sentiment and flag anything negative.
I searched all three platforms and found 214 mentions of Anthropic this week.
Overall sentiment is 89% positive, heavily driven by excitement around the Claude 4.6 release on LinkedIn and Twitter. 8% neutral (news coverage), 3% negative.
There's 1 item to flag: a Twitter thread from @airesearcher questioning Claude's new pricing tiers (1.2K likes, 340 replies). The news coverage from TechCrunch and The Verge is broadly positive.

Get ChatGPT's latest reddit mentions and check the replies. Are users complaining about anything? Also check the news for any negative coverage.
I searched Reddit for recent ChatGPT mentions and checked the news. Here's what I found:
Main complaints on Reddit: users in r/ChatGPT (312 comments) are frustrated with GPT-4o's recent "laziness" — shorter responses and more refusals. A top post in r/artificial with 1.8K upvotes calls it a regression.
News coverage: Ars Technica ran a piece questioning response quality. No other major negative coverage this week.

⏺ I searched Reddit and forums and found 87 comparison posts and 1.2K comments. Top themes:
1. Context window — Claude's 1M token context is the #1 differentiator, mentioned in 64% of threads.
2. Coding ability — split opinion, but Claude Code is frequently praised.
3. Instruction following — users say Claude is less likely to refuse or truncate.
Based on this, I'd suggest highlighting context window and coding on our landing page. Want me to update src/pages/compare.tsx?

Search social media and figure out what features people care about the most in their AI chatbots. Build the top 3 features.
I searched Twitter, Reddit, and forums for what people want most from AI chatbots. After analysing 340+ posts, here are the top 3:
1. Memory across conversations — the most requested feature by far. Users want their chatbot to remember past interactions and preferences.
2. File and image understanding — uploading documents, screenshots, and PDFs and getting useful analysis back.
3. Tool use and actions — people want chatbots that can actually do things: book meetings, search the web, write and run code.
I've created the three feature components in src/components/features/. Want me to wire them into the main page?
Give me a briefing on AI regulation. Check the latest news articles and what people on Twitter are saying about any new policy changes.
Here's your AI regulation briefing from the last 48 hours:
Big story: The EU AI Act enforcement guidelines were published yesterday. Reuters, Bloomberg, and TechCrunch all covered it. The key change: foundation model providers now have 6 months (not 12) to comply with transparency requirements.
Twitter reaction is split — policy researchers are calling it "overdue," while startup founders are raising concerns about compliance costs. A thread from @EUpolicywatch with 2.4K likes breaks down the timeline.
