@ArtificialAnlys scatter plots AI model cost against intelligence

A 6-model scatter on July 31, 2026 drew 573K views, 50x this account's median, with engagement below the AI chart median.

What happened

@ArtificialAnlys posted a scatter plot of AI model cost against the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index on July 31, 2026. It was one of 4 posts from the account that day, alongside a GDPval-AA v2 Leaderboard and an AA-Omniscence Index and Accuracy post.

The numbers

It reached 573K views, #139 of 1,162 AI chart posts and #22 of 491 @ArtificialAnlys posts, against a median of 39.9K views among AI chart posts. Its score of 75 ranks #122 of 1,162 AI chart posts and #16 of 491 @ArtificialAnlys posts.

The lesson

A 6-model scatter drew 573K views, 50x this account's median, but its 0.076% save rate and 0.57% engagement rate sit below the AI chart median. The chart shows Intelligence Index values from 55 to 61, and the wide reach did not carry the save rate with it.

What it means

At #16 of 491 @ArtificialAnlys posts by score, this scatter sits well inside the account's own range, yet its 0.57% engagement rate is below the AI chart median. The 50x gap over the account's 11.4K median views shows reach and engagement moving apart on this post.
