Boris walked into the Anthropic office one day and saw a data scientist running SQL queries with ASCII visualizations in a terminal using Claude Code.
The next week, the entire row of data scientists had Claude Code open. Then half the sales team. Then finance.
He calls this latent demand. People already want to build things. They already want to query their own data, automate their own workflows, prototype their own tools. The desire was always there. The friction was the barrier.
The adoption curve for AI tools doesn't look like a product launch. It looks like a virus moving through an open office. One person figures it out, the person sitting next to them sees the screen, and by Friday the whole floor has it installed.

Aakash Gupta @aakashguptaAnthropic shipped 120+ features in 90 days across Claude Code, Cowork, and Claude.
I ranked every single one.
S tier, A tier, B tier, C tier, D tier. What to adopt now, what to skip, and 4 workflows that chain them together:
