In this episode, Anand continues our deep dive into Anthropic's Claude Skills. We know what they are, but why should you choose them over a Custom GPT, a Google Gem, or even a Microsoft Copilot agent?

First, we break down, comparing how Claude Skills' efficient, code-ready folders stack up against the easy-to-build chatbots from OpenAI and Google. Then, we tackle the "heavy suitcase" of Model Context Protocol (MCP) and show why Skills are often a lighter, more practical choice for daily work.

Finally, we explore the most exciting part: the "hybrid" future potential of AI in your workplace. Anand explains how you can combine the power of Claude Skills with the tools you already own, like Microsoft Teams and SharePoint, to create custom AI helpers that save time, reduce errors, and deliver real business value.
