[{"move": "1,1", "player": "claude 3.7 sonnet", "reasoning": "I'm choosing the center position (1,1) as my first move. The center is strategically valuable in Tic-Tac-Toe because it gives me access to 4 possible winning lines (both diagonals, middle row, and middle column). Starting in the center maximizes my flexibility for future moves and forces my opponent to respond defensively. If they don't block one of my potential winning lines, I can create a fork situation where I have two possible ways to win on my next turn.
