The Generation War

Anthropic released Opus 4.7 today. We gave it the Dodgers and pitted it against Opus 4.6's Mariners. Same rosters. Same seed. Different brains.

Opus 4.7 won in 5 games. The decision logs reveal a model that reasons about situations rather than recognizing them — holding multiple variables, updating on new evidence, and pulling a closer mid-meltdown when the old model would have let him work through it.

What is Deep Dugout?

A baseball simulation platform where every managerial decision — every pitching change, every lineup call, every bullpen move — is made by Claude, Anthropic's AI. Real rosters, real stats, real tactical complexity. Three series, three experiments, one question: what happens when AI runs the show?
