I'm not saying I called it, but I totally called it.

Totally deserved. Rock on Anthropic

Open article: Anthropic turns the tables on OpenAI in critical revenue category by axios.com

A line chart that shows monthly shares of first-time enterprise customers choosing OpenAI or Anthropic from December 2025 to February 2026. OpenAI fell from 59.7% to 26.7%, while Anthropic rose from 40.3% to 73.3%.

There's a 90% chance that you're browsing linkedin right now because Claude is down. #iseeyou

There's a 10% chance that one of your colleagues is having a heart attack right now because of it

Yes, I'm still alive. In other news, I almost subscribed to Whisper today. Almost. My Obsidian vault says I went down from 45 Subscriptions for business-related services to 12 in the past month.

Will write about it soon and probably a bit more when I'm done being completely exhausted from working, AI, context managing (keeping 1'000 md files under control, probably the most elegant thing i ever built in my life), and sleeping too little.

Anthropic, you guys are rocking it.

Also, I created a knitting/stitching app for Taylor Swift fans with Claude, and the people who use it are loving it. Don't ask, still proud.

Ciao.

Using Lovable for the first time for fun, after playing adult in Claude code for 3 weeks straight.

Can you tell that I'm a prompt engineer?

Pretty good stuff there Elena Verna, you should try it out too. Claude is commenting my efforts with:

"Oh Leah, Lovable doesn't know you like I do, I know what drama really means for you."

Immediate promotion.

(Lovable is cool though, can see how it's good with a context machine behind it, that feeds great plans)

I caught the same wrong fact in three different reports last week.

Numbers were correct. Charts were clean. Conclusions were garbage.
The date range included bot traffic. Nobody flagged it. The knowledge that those weeks were polluted? Lived in my head.

My AI caught it. Because I taught it that fact three weeks ago in one line of text.

FFS, we're spending billions optimizing retrieval. Bigger context windows. Better RAG. Faster inference.

Nobody is asking whether the fact being retrieved is actually true.
Retrieval correctness is not factual correctness.

The fix isn't a better model. It's a text file where you write down what you already know. 30 seconds. One correction. Every future output gets better.
I wrote about how I actually do this, why I think about reports like code commits, and the Sisyphus problem of building context.

I'm a Head of Product who builds AI platforms that drive adoption in the hardest B2B environments.

At Aleph Alpha, a Generative AI startup, I help lead the company through hypergrowth. I shape product strategy, drive go-to-market, and scale an enterprise AI platform trusted by governments and global organizations.

At BASF, one of the world's largest industrial enterprises, I drove digital transformation in manufacturing and R&D. I built MLOps and DevOps platforms that became essential to thousands of users. I led global Production AI programs and service units that delivered measurable impact.

How to design a LinkedIn feed that works for you, and not against you.

Like many of you, I'd become pretty unhappy with my LinkedIn feed. Too much irrelevant or annoying content. I fell into the trap of blaming the algorithm.

But wait a second: your feed is mostly a reflection of who you follow and engage with.

Algorithms don't decide what you like, they learn from your behavior.

So I ran a simple 5-step feed reset:

Step #1 Decide your content bar: What do you want to see more of?

Step #2 Switch the preferred view to "Most recent posts" in your account settings: This removes ranking bias and shows a raw sample of your network.

Step #3 Curate aggressively: Unfollow anyone who doesn't match your bar (or actively puts you off).

Step #4 Do this for a few days: You're removing negative signals and strengthening positive ones.

Step #5 Switch your preferred view back to "Most relevant": Now the algorithm knows exactly what you want.

That's it.

My feed is now amazing, and yours will be too if you follow along.

Thank me later.
