I keep getting shocked by how bad the reasoning of Opus 4.7 is. It still seems fine for programming tasks, but when I ask it to advise me about things, it often produces illogical, nonsensical and flatout wrong responses and shows that it didn't understand simple concepts we had just discussed in the conversation. It is so much worse than previous models that I'm wondering whether we might be starting to see signs of model collapse: this term refers to more and more content on the internet being AI generated and how problematic it is to use such content as training data for new models. And ...

I just made this product promo video completely with Claude code. Explaining the process here with the prompts. I also have a generic prompt at the bottom that you might want to use. # Step 1: Describe your video in scenes Don’t think in “design.” Think in scenes — like a director giving a shot list to a crew. This is the first prompt I used: Make a slick product intro video for my product https://claudevideoexport.com - Scene 1: Text animation — "How to get MP4 from Claude Design Animation" - Scene 2: Show a small browser window with "Claude Design" open. Pan to the t...

Opus 4.7 on Max effort decided to create a new email template by itself (which is pretty stupid btw) and mass mailed it to the whole database (some emails were repeatedly sent 20x). Before you ask me - yes, [CLAUDE.md](http://CLAUDE.md) has the exact rule for that, it's supposed to email the tester before any new email templates are to be used in production. I have created this safety rule a few months ago. I feel like the Opus 4.7 is a huge letdown the way it's been downgraded. If Anthropic is "pushing the boundaries", it's probably only in the meaning of how far they can push the...
