Anthropic Releases Phase Two of Project Fetch: Claude Opus 4.7 Achieves 10x Speed Improvement in Robotic Tasks

Deep Tide TechFlow reports that on June 19, Anthropic announced the experimental results of Phase Two of 'Project Fetch,' evaluating the performance improvements of its latest model in real-world robotic operations. The experiment, conducted in August 2025, involved non-robotics experts—Anthropic employees—using off-the-shelf quadruped robots to complete a series of complex tasks. The study compared the performance of 'using Claude model assistance' versus 'relying solely on humans and the internet.' Results showed that under fully autonomous operation of the latest model, Claude Opus 4.7, the average task completion speed significantly surpassed that of human teams, with execution speed improving by at least 10 times. Anthropic stated that this progress was not the result of specialized training for robotics but rather an outcome of the general capabilities expansion of large models. They also noted that AI is transitioning from 'assisting humans in using tools' to the early stages of 'directly operating physical tools,' akin to the previous evolution toward agent-based programming in the software engineering domain.
