I wish I had a clue what you are talking about

Claude Cowork is Anthropic's agentic AI system for knowledge work, bringing the autonomous execution capabilities of Claude Code to a graphical desktop interface for non-technical users.  It functions as an AI teammate that plans, executes, and completes multi-step tasks—such as file organization, research synthesis, and document creation—directly on your local machine without requiring command-line knowledge.

I've actually though that would be fun to try. Load a simple NCI file, then load a NC file off of a functional post, and ask whatever AI engine to make a translator between them. The "translator" would be a post.

This is so retarded. Especially in the day and age we live in where setting up your post COULD**** be as simple as feeding the Internal Post ChatbotAgent your code sample and doin the whole back n forth with it until your post is exactly as you want it.

This is probably where AI/agents would have the most impact/bang for buck in manufacturing.

Didn't get a picture while it was on the Blackstone. Broccoli, Asparagus, Cauliflower, Onion, and Chickpeas grilled to a nice char. Served with a savory Tamari sauce and topped with pickled red chili peppers.

They (DSI) are telling us Eureka is going to be about the same cost as CAMplete maintenance-wise.

Of course.... defending upon how long you have been a Mcam user, you might have actually paid for a post back in the day when they were all available on the CD....

My recommendation to customers at this moment is keep your CAMplete subscription up to date through 2027. Before then you should be able to fully evaluate it.

James, thanks for the info!

We took delivery of the new MX420 last week, and with the CAMplete welcome email for the free trial, bossman immediately got the EOL email as well. Pretty funny. "Here's some incredible, free software you can't use for more than a few years."

I'll keep my eye on Eureka while learning CAMplete for the next year, since we won't even have the option to buy it. All in all, the timing is a bit of a boon for us.
