User builds stock market game with Claude AI, attracting 25K+ plays

A user developed a web-based game called "Beat the Couch" using Anthropic's Claude AI, which has garnered over 25,000 plays. The game challenges players to time the stock market against a passive opponent that buys once and holds. Claude was instrumental in building the game, assisting with its structure, depth, and special cases. The game utilizes historical S&P 500 data from 1928-2019 and includes a permutation test to validate wins against random chance, with the passive couch currently outperforming human players. AI
