In hindsight, I suppose it was only a matter of time after Anthropic made Claude capable of generating charts and diagrams that the company would then begin offering a more robust image editor. Now, a little more than a month after that release, Anthropic has announced Claude Design, a new research preview that allows subscribers to use Claude to generate designs, prototypes, slides and more.
"Claude Design gives designers room to explore widely and everyone else a way to produce visual work," Anthropic says of its newest product. As with its previous forays into image generation, the company isn't calling this, well, an image generator. Instead, Anthropic describes Opus 4.7, the system powering the app, as its most capable vision model to date. In other words, you won't be using Claude Design to whip up a picture of a cat in space eating a lasagna.
As you might expect, every project in Claude Design starts with a prompt. From there, Anthropic notes users can refine Claude's outputs through conversation, inline comments and direct edits. Like Adobe's

You now have the power to remove short-form videos from your YouTube feed if you don't want to see them. YouTube has rolled out the capability to set your Shorts feed limit to zero minutes, which could help you stop doomscrolling, at least on mobile. The video-sharing platform originally launched a Shorts feed limit back in October last year, but the lowest option you could choose was 15 minutes. Once 15 minutes are up, you'll get a pop-up reminding you to take a break.
Earlier this year, it integrated the feature with parental controls, allowing guardians to set time limits for younger users. YouTube said back then that parents will soon see the option to set the timer to zero. Now, the Shorts timer is live not just for parents, but for all users. We can confirm that we're now seeing the zero minutes option in our (adult) account and were able to activate it for ourselves. When you select it, you may see a notice that says "Scrolling is paused but you may still see individual Shorts." You may also have to refresh your app before short-form videos disappear from your feed.
To be able to block stop Shorts from showing up for you, go to your Setting page in the YouTube app for mobile. Look for "Time management" and scroll down to "Daily limits," where you can find the "Shorts feed limit" section. If you don't want to get rid of Shorts altogether, you can choose from any of the other options, with two hours being the maximum time available.
