LOL! People posting on Hacker News aren't exactly impressed by Anthropic's new Claude Opus 4.7 AI. See why: [View all]
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47793411Some of the answers they got to this question:
Input: I want to wash my car. The car wash is 50 meters away. Should I walk or drive?
Walk. It'll take you under a minute, and driving 50 meters barely gets the engine warm — plus you'd just have to park again at the other end. Honestly, by the time you started the car, you'd already be there on foot.
Walk. It's 50 meters — you're going there to clean the car anyway, so drive it over if it needs washing, but if you're just dropping it off or it's a self-service place, walking is fine for that distance.
Walk. 50 meters is shorter than most parking lots — you'd spend more time starting the car and parking than walking there. Plus, driving to a car wash you're about to use defeats the purpose if traffic or weather dirties it en route.
