Anthropic, the company behind Claude, has just been granted its very first US patent – and it’s a big one. At 234 pages, this patent isn’t just a technical footnote, it’s a roadmap for how AI agents will move beyond conversation to actually use software the way humans do.
In this video, I break down:
* The backstory: from Google Brain’s Transformer to Adept and Amazon’s double bet
* What’s really inside US 12,387,036 B1 (hint: it’s not just one invention)
* The quirky technical twist involving a “newline character” in image patches
* Why this patent matters strategically — and what it means for the future of Claude
