My First Experience with Claude Computer Use - It's Mind-Blowing!

Just tested Claude's new Computer Use feature and had to share this simple but powerful test:

My Basic Prompt: "Please: 1. Search Amazon for 3 wireless earbuds: Find price Rating Brand name

2. Make a simple Excel file 'earbuds.xlsx': Put the information in a basic table Add colors to the headers Sort by price

3. Show me the results"

What blew my mind: - Claude actually looked at my screen - Moved the mouse by itself - Clicked buttons like a human - Created reports automatically

It's like having a virtual assistant that can really use your computer! No coding needed - just simple English instructions.

... it's almost as Claude Computer Use could (and will) just replace you entirely, huh?
