Coming Up

Claude has three tools wrapped together in one app: Chat, Code, and Cowork. In this session I'll give a practical tour of all three: what each product does, where it fits in a data science workflow, and how to use it.

For those interested in AI-assisted coding: I'll show a basic VS Code setup that works whether you're used to working from scripts or notebooks. We'll also cover CLAUDE.md files: what they are, why they matter, and how to write one that makes Claude useful instead of generic.

This is session two of the AI Tools for Data Science & Stats webinar series, co-sponsored by the ASA Section on Statistical Learning and Data Science and Polaris Data Labs.
