AI benchmark scores
Epoch AI's benchmark bar chart drew 34.9K views on X: 6.6x @epochairesearch's median post and #616 of 1,162 AI chart posts we hold by views. Read Oct 10, 2026.
GPT-6 Astra leads the Epoch Capabilities Index (ECI), ahead of competing models like Claude Fable 5.1, and its Math-ECI also sets a new record. However, on software engineering benchmarks, Fable 5.1 remains state-of-the-art.
Why it spread
The post spread because it landed at launch timing from an independent author, and the account's typical likes are 114 while this post earned 459 likes, 39 reposts, 7 quotes, 76 saves and 34,871 views.
What worked
- The chart is branded and shows a source line, which supports trust for a benchmark comparison.
- The framing is a clear split: GPT-6 Astra leads the Epoch Capabilities Index and sets a new Math-ECI record, while Claude Fable 5.1 remains state-of-the-art on software engineering benchmarks.
- The post rides launch timing with an independent author, and the account's typical likes are 114 against 459 likes here, so the topic clearly traveled beyond the usual audience.
What to borrow
We could use the same benchmark-bars form and the same split framing: show where our model leads and where a rival still leads, with a source line and our brand on the chart.
Careful
Do not over-read the quote rate, which sits in the bottom quarter, and do not treat the source reach in the top quarter as proof that the design alone drove the spread.
