Episode 365 - Skills not apps

In this episode, we dig into Cowork Skills and why they represent a genuine shift from “AI as a novelty” to “AI as part of how work actually gets done.” Not more prompts. Not more tools. But fewer decisions, less friction, and more consistency across the business. If you’ve ever thought “Copilot is interesting, but it’s not really embedded yet”, this episode is for you.
