Nine Connectors and Lufthansa Loses the Oscar
Anthropic unveiled nine MCP connectors that embed its Claude AI directly into leading creative software such as Adobe Creative Cloud, Blender, Autodesk Fusion, Ableton, and SketchUp. The integrations let Claude act as a “second brain,” executing commands inside timelines, node graphs, and 3D viewports rather than merely generating outputs. Early adopters report mixed results—some tasks like batch InDesign publishing speed up, while others, like Photoshop resizing, remain slower than manual work. Anthropic also pledged over $280,000 annually to the Blender Development Fund and is collaborating with art schools on AI‑driven curricula.
