How Anthropic’s product team moves faster than anyone else

I sat down with @_catwu, Head of Product for Claude Code at @AnthropicAI, to get a peek into their unprecedented shipping pace, how AI is changing the PM role, and how to be the right amount of AGI-pilled.

We discuss:
🔸 How Anthropic’s shipping cadence went from months to weeks to days
🔸 The emerging skills PMs need to develop right now
🔸 Why you should build products that don't work yet—then wait for the model to catch up
🔸 Why a 95% automation isn't really an automation
🔸 Cat’s most underrated AI skill (introspection)
🔸 What Cat actually looks for when hiring PMs now (hint: it's not traditional PM skills)

Today we're launching a rebuilt version of Claude Code on desktop.

The app has been redesigned for the ground up to make it easier than ever to parallelize work with Claude.

I haven't opened an IDE or terminal in weeks. Excited for you all to give it a shot!

We're growing the Claude Code team and I'm looking for someone obsessed with evals. Not just writing them — designing the right ones, QAing signal vs noise and building the infra to run them at scale.

It's deeply meaningful work and honestly the most fun I've ever had professionally. If you're technically curious and high agency, DM me.

Exciting to hear Spotify CEO's support for Claude Code in their recent earnings call

We're increasingly seeing devs explain their goals and constraints in a spec and then delegating the entire implementation to Claude Code
