Epoch AI's stacked bar chart drew 12.1K views on X: 0.2x its typical post and #93 of 97 Epoch AI charts we track by views. Read Oct 14, 2026.
Who is more exposed to a semiconductor supply shock, China or the US?
Why it spread
The post spread because it paired a hot topic that week with launch timing, and the measured numbers show it reached 11,995 views, 136 likes, 15 reposts, 4 quotes and 40 saves, with likes above the account's typical 114.
What worked
- The chart tackled a hot topic that week, asking who is more exposed to a semiconductor supply shock, China or the US.
- The post led with a clear finding that China's exposure is about 2.7 times that of the US, giving readers a reason to share.
- The launch timing and the branded stacked bar with a source line helped the post travel, and the quote rate was above average.
What to borrow
We could take a live policy or supply question, split out one part of the chain in our own data, and lead with a single ratio that compares two players.
Careful
Do not copy the exact framing or over-read the result, since the spread came from a hot topic and launch timing, not from the chart form alone.
