Claude Duet naming criticized as Anthropic misses the obvious ANTS pun

The author argues Anthropic's new personal agent should have been called ANTS (Anthropic + bots) instead of Claude Duet, which sounds like a karaoke app.

Anthropic had ONE job with this name 😭 They just launched Claude Duet, an AI agent like OpenAI’s Dots, and somehow missed the most obvious name ever: ANTS Anthropic + bots = Ants. A whole colony of little agents getting work done. It’s clever, memorable, and actually fits the brand Instead, we got… DUET. Sounds like a karaoke app ;( Who approved this name?
