Description from the channel

Master AI: https://www.skool.com/earlyaidopters/about Work With Me: https://www.promptadvisers.com A few weeks ago Claude Code and Codex both shipped screen recording features, and the part nobody announced is that the same work quietly made both of them better at processing raw video. In this video I break down three ways to use it out of the box, dragging in a raw MP4, pointing it at a bare link, and hacking the record feature to watch me work over my shoulder and audit my process. Along the way I turn a Loom of my website into a full improvement plan, clone an award winning 3D site from a narrated recording, and start rebuilding a SaaS platform I pay for every month. You used to need Gemini for this. Now it is sitting inside the subscriptions you already have. --- 0:00 - the upgrade nobody announced 1:00 - drag and drop a raw MP4 into both 2:00 - how it actually watches (frames + audio) 3:00 - the flipbook trick and the resolution tip 4:00 - use case 1, website improvements from a Loom 6:00 - community 6:30 - use case 2, cloning a 3D website from a recording 8:20 - use case 3, rebuilding a SaaS platform for myself 9:30 - hacking record and replay to audit my workflow 12:45 - the SOP it handed back 13:00 - where this leaves you #ClaudeCode #Codex #AI #Anthropic #OpenAI #AIAutomation #AIAgents #VideoAI #Loom #Productivity #AITools #Claude #Multimodal #Workflow
