THE TECH BITE
👋 Intro
Happy Tuesday, Tech Bite family 🎉
Here’s a quick 3+ minute Tech Bite to catch up on a few AI updates worth knowing.
In today’s Tech Bite:
Claude Code spreads across Microsoft 🧠
Devin brings AI into GitHub code reviews 🧑💻
JBL adds AI to music practice amps 🎸
Plus: useful tools, social chatter, and one brain-boost Smart Bite 💡
Let’s dive into today’s bite 👇
🍪 Today’s Main Bite
1) Claude's Code is suddenly everywhere inside Microsoft
Image Source: Microsoft
🚀 Quick Take:
Microsoft is increasingly encouraging employees across teams to use Claude Code, even as it continues selling GitHub Copilot to customers.
📝 What’s New:
Microsoft Teams is being asked to install and experiment with Claude Code
Adoption is spreading beyond developers to designers and project managers
Claude Code is now used across major engineering divisions, including Windows, Microsoft 365, Teams, and Outlook
Microsoft’s CoreAI team and Experiences + Devices division are actively testing it
Engineers are expected to use both Claude Code and GitHub Copilot and compare the results
Claude models were first tested internally in 2025, but this marks a wider push toward Claude Code itself, not just the underlying models.
🧠 Why It Matters:
This is a quiet but important signal.
Microsoft sells Copilot, but internally, it’s open to using the best tool for the job, even if it comes from outside. Claude Code’s ease of use is making it valuable not just for engineers, but for non-technical teams prototyping ideas.
This shows how AI tools are being judged now:
Not by brand
Not by ownership
But by how well they fit into real workflows
AI coding tools aren’t just for writing code anymore.
They’re becoming collaboration tools inside large companies.

2) Devin launches an AI code review tool for GitHub
🚀 Quick Take:
Devin has launched Devin Review, an AI-powered tool that helps developers review GitHub pull requests faster and with less effort.
📝 What’s New:
Devin Review groups large code diffs into logical sections
Flags potential bugs and labels them by severity
Let reviewers ask questions about the code inside the PR
Works via a web app, GitHub links, or a CLI tool
Available free during early release
Public GitHub PRs can be reviewed without login
The goal is to reduce review noise while keeping reviews accurate and actionable.
🧠 Why It Matters:
AI coding agents are creating more pull requests than teams can comfortably review.
Code review is becoming the new bottleneck.
By focusing on review instead of generation, Devin is solving a real pain point for developers and maintainers. Instead of scrolling through massive diffs, reviewers get structure, context, and prioritized issues.
This shows where developer AI is heading next:
Less about writing, more code
More about understanding and reviewing it better
3) JBL brings AI into music practice
Image Source: JBL
🚀 Quick Take:
JBL has launched AI-powered practice amps that can remove vocals or instruments from songs, letting musicians practice along with real tracks.
📝 What’s New:
Two new practice amps: BandBox Solo ($250) and BandBox Trio ($600)
Built-in Stem AI removes vocals or instruments from Bluetooth music
Solo supports one guitar or mic input
Trio supports up to four instruments and adds onboard controls and an LCD
Effects include reverb, chorus, phaser, pitch shift, and tuner
Built-in looper coming later via a software update
Battery life: up to 6 hours (Solo) and 10 hours (Trio)
Available for pre-order now, shipping starts March 1
🧠 Why It Matters:
This shows AI moving beyond screens and into creative hardware.
Instead of just helping people generate content, AI here helps people practice and improve real skills. Being able to isolate parts from any song changes how musicians learn, rehearse, and jam.
It’s a small product, but a clear signal:
AI isn’t just for work and code anymore. It’s entering hobbies and everyday creativity.
🔧 Tool Bite
A few tools that caught my eye today 👇
Citable → A tool that helps your brand get mentioned and cited by AI tools like ChatGPT and other AI agents
Gobii → A tool that runs AI agents 24/7 to browse the web, read files, and keep working even when you’re offline
⚙️ Smart Bite
One small thought worth taking away today. 👇
Progress often comes from doing fewer things with more intention, not doing everything efficiently.
