Claude 3.7 in 7 Minutes | 3 Magical Upgrades You Must Know (Feat. Moo Deng)

Master Claude 3.7 in Minutes: No Information Overload, Just Results

Claude 3.7 Sonic launched recently and it's a magical upgrade, but it can be overwhelming with all the information out there. Instead of drowning you in technical details, I'll explain it so simply you can just chill out and relax.

To be an expert at Claude 3.7, you only need to know three magical upgrades: Hybrid Magic, Code Magic, and Boost Magic.

Upgrade #1: Hybrid Magic - The Game-Changing Superpower

This is the most important thing about the new Claude: it uses a totally unique hybrid approach to AI. Hybrid means they took two different modes and put them together, unlocking a superpower that no other AI has.

Mode 1: Watermelon Mode (Default)
This is like when you spot your favorite treat - you don't overthink it, just go straight for the answer. Claude doesn't overthink simple tasks, just provides direct responses.

Mode 2: Extended Mode (Deep Thinking)
For more complicated situations, Claude takes more time to think things through. On the Claude website, you'll see this new option called "extended" where Claude engages this explore mode. The bonus? You can actually see Claude's thought process.

The Magic: Automatic Switching
When you combine these modes and train the model from the ground up, you unlock the ability to seamlessly switch between them. Claude instinctively knows when to go straight for answers or carefully investigate complex problems.

This instinct is crushing the competition on coding tests. While other state-of-the-art models like OpenAI's o1, o1 reasoning, and DeepSeek are stuck at 49%, Claude 3.7 Sonnet achieves 78.3% - absolutely crushing the competition for coding tasks.

Note: You only get this auto-switching ability via the API, not on the main website.

Upgrade #2: Code Magic - Your AI Zookeeper

Claude Code is like giving Claude a zookeeper. Just like how animals need a safe area to run and play, Claude Code runs in your terminal on your computer, giving Claude a safe environment where it can:

• Modify your files
• Update your code
• Run tests
• Access the seamless switching ability via API

Upgrade #3: Boost Magic - Four Notable Improvements

Speed Boost: Claude 3.7 Sonnet is now much faster with only 200 milliseconds latency - that's 23% faster than Claude 3.5 for basic requests.

Answer Length Boost: Answers used to be up to 8,000 tokens long, but now we get 15 times longer answers of 228k tokens.

Cooperation Boost: Claude is 45% less likely to refuse your requests, making it more helpful and accommodating.

Pricing Boost: The pricing is exactly the same as Claude 3.5, meaning we all get a free upgrade in most apps. This makes it simple for companies to upgrade to the latest model without changing anything.

Your Claude 3.7 Mastery Complete

You now officially understand Claude 3.7's three magical upgrades: the hybrid magic that unlocked superpower intuition, Code Magic that brings Claude safely into your computer environment, and Boost Magic with its series of notable improvements. You're ready to claim mastery of Claude 3.7 at your next conversation about AI.
