AI exposure and productivity
Social Capital's scatter plot drew 24.2K views on X: 5.9x its typical post and #31 of 41 Social Capital charts we track by views. Read Oct 13, 2026.
According to the Dallas Fed, the three most exposed sectors to AI have grown output per hour at 3.7% a year since early 2024.
Why it spread
The post spread because it paired a clear, source-backed claim about AI-exposed sectors growing output per hour at 3.7% a year versus 1.7% for the rest of the economy withisas a scatter chart, earning 23,989 views, 59 likes, 8 reposts, 2 quotes, and 14 saves, which is 8.4 times the account's normal performance.
What worked
- The post text gives a simple, credible comparison from the Dallas Fed: 3.7% versus 1.7%.
- The scatter chart visually supports the claim that industries more exposed to AI have seen faster productivity growth.
- The post is branded and shows a source line, which adds trust, and it earned an above average quote rate with many quotes.
What to borrow
We could use a scatter chart with a clear source line and a simple two-number comparison from our own data to show how one group outperforms another.
Careful
Do not over-read the quote rate or the unusual chart type as the main cause, and do not copy the exact numbers or the Dallas Fed framing without our own equivalent data.
