What are the largest software engineering tasks AI can perform?
Why it spread
This chart post spread because it came from an independent author and drew an above average quote rate, reaching 162,395 views with 578 likes, 74 reposts, 23 quotes and 208 saves.
What worked
- The post framed the chart around a concrete question about the largest software engineering tasks AI can perform, which gives viewers a clear reason to look.
- It anchored the benchmark in a vivid example, a 16,000-line bioinformatics toolkit reimplemented by Claude Opus 4.6, which makes the result feel tangible rather than abstract.
- It signaled credibility through co-development with another evaluation group and a visible source line, while the benchmark bars kept the comparison easy to scan.
What to borrow
We could pair our own benchmark chart with one plain-language question and one concrete task example from our data, then credit any collaborator and keep a visible source line.
Careful
Do not copy the specific model, task or benchmark claims, and do not over-read the quote rate or view count as proof that the chart design itself drove the spread.

API · Max
Use this chart via API
On the Max plan you can pull this chart's numbers with the provenance of each one, as JSON or CSV, with its redraw spec, or call it from an agent over MCP. Chart id f794365b909d.
Approximate values. Our two readings of this chart agreed only in part (confidence 0.45 of 1), so check the original before you quote a number. The API marks it lowConfidence, and ?min_confidence=0.5 leaves it out.
