Felix Rieseberg leads engineering for Claude Cowork and Claude Code Desktop at Anthropic. Before that he led desktop and web infrastructure at Notion and built software at Stripe, Slack, and Microsoft.

In this episode of Summation, Felix and Auren discuss:

  • the next AI step function: going from solving a problem to owning a responsibility
  • why AI will win many Nobel prizes before it wins a single Pulitzer
  • bringing AI into the physical world, from a $30 coffee-machine display to a Wi-Fi garage opener
  • why "here's what your team can learn from the Navy SEALs" is bad management advice
