Code analysis firm sees no major benefits from AI dev tool when measuring key programming metrics, though others report incremental gains from coding copilots with emphasis on code review.

Anthropic says Opus 4 leads industry benchmarks for coding tasks, achieving 72.5 percent on SWE-bench and 43.2 percent on Terminal-bench, calling it "the world's best coding model." ...

A Google spokesman noted that more than 30 percent of the company’s code is now suggested by A.I. and accepted by developers. The shift has not been all negative for workers.

And all this work paid off. DiffuCoder-7B-cpGRPO got a 4.4% boost on a popular coding benchmark, and it maintained its lower dependency on generating code strictly from left to right.
