SWE-bench Is Broken — And That Matters for Every Developer Picking a Model

Models are hitting 95% on the standard benchmark but only 23% on the contamination-resistant version. The gap exposes something important about how AI coding models actually perform on real work.

Claude Mythos 5 scores 95.5% on SWE-bench Verified. It scores 45.9% on SWE-bench Pro. The top models score around 23% on the public Pro set. The benchmark most developers use to choose their AI coding tools is telling them the wrong story.

The Trust Collapse: Why 84% of Developers Use AI Coding Tools Daily but Only 29% Trust Them

Adoption is near-universal. Trust is in freefall. Developer favourability toward AI coding tools has dropped from 77% in 2023 to 60% today. Something is breaking down — and it's not the models.

84% of developers use AI coding tools daily. Only 29% trust the output. Favourability has dropped from 77% to 60% in three years. 63% have spent more time debugging AI-generated code than writing it themselves would have taken. The tools are getting better. The trust is getting worse. Here's why.

Anthropic Is Filing for a $965 Billion IPO. It Also Has a Model Too Dangerous to Release. These Two Facts Are Connected.

Anthropic confidentially filed its S-1 on June 1, 2026 — weeks after revealing a model that can autonomously exploit zero-day vulnerabilities in every major OS and browser. The tension between the two stories tells you everything about where the company actually stands.

In the space of two weeks in June 2026, Anthropic confidentially filed for an IPO at a $965 billion valuation and released Fable 5 — a public version of Mythos with its most dangerous cybersecurity capabilities stripped out. The full Mythos 5 remains restricted to Project Glasswing partners. The company that was founded on a safety-first mission is now navigating one of the most complex public narratives in tech.
