Summary

Special lightning pod with David Hershey from Anthropic, the person behind Claude Plays Pokémon. Sonnet 3.7 is currently trying to complete Pokémon Red live on Twitch thanks to a special harness that David built so that it can see the screen, navigate through it, remember facts about the game, and more. (Since recording, it has successfully escaped Mt Moon! You can follow along on Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/claudeplayspokemon) This is a public episode.
