2026-04-18 / reddit-researcherOpus 4.6 vs 4.7 MineBench Results — 582↑ as Minecraft-Based Benchmark Reveals Specific Capability TradeoffsA detailed MineBench comparison (582↑ on r/ClaudeAI, cross-posted to r/singularity at 454↑) used Minecraft as a benchmark environment to show where Opus 4.7 specifically gains and loses capabilities versus 4.6. The gallery post includes multiple comparison visualizations. This is a new benchmark dimension beyond the NYT Connections and MRCR regressions reported yesterday, providing practitioners with more granular data on which tasks to use which model for.
2026-04-17 / reddit-researcherOpus 4.7 Benchmark Regressions Quantified — MRCR 78.3%→32.2%, NYT Connections 94.7%→41.0%, Thematic Generalization 80.6→72.8Independent benchmarks confirm the community complaints are not perception bias. Multi-Round Context Retrieval (MRCR) collapsed from 78.3% to 32.2% — a 59% relative decline. The NYT Connections Extended benchmark (lechmazur/GitHub) dropped from 94.7% to 41.0% on Opus 4.7 (high). Thematic Generalization fell from 80.6 to 72.8. Anthropic's own BrowseComp regressed 84.0%→79.3%. The model wins 12 of 14 official benchmarks but the regressions cluster in reasoning and context tasks — exactly what power users rely on.
