There are plenty of things I genuinely don’t enjoy doing — repetitive tasks, setting reminders, organizing endless to-do lists, and all those chores that eat into the day. That’s where AI tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude have slowly slipped into my routine. They handle the grunt work for me, which means I can spend more time on things I actually care about.
Paying for all three premium versions of these AI apps was great for unlocking their full capabilities, and for a while, I was actively trying to use each of them properly. But somewhere along the way, I noticed a pattern. Despite having access to all three, I rarely stuck with ChatGPT or Gemini for long stretches. Instead, I’d open them, start a task, maybe experiment for a bit, and then somehow drift back to Claude.
After months of noticing this habit and trying to understand why it kept happening, I think I finally figured it out.

Over time, it has also begun to understand how I think and what I am really asking for, which makes the whole experience feel much more human.
The biggest reason I keep going back to Claude is Cowork.
