eliebakouch · x · 2026-07-10
Cited content reveals that over the past six months, the share of research compute allocated to internal coding reasoning has grown 100x, and internal agentic token usage has surged roughly 22x.
The poster speculates that compute consumption per token may have increased about 4x within half a year, reflecting a rapid shift in internal AI usage toward coding and agentic scenarios.
