Redditor proposes an 'SWD bench' to benchmark LLM decompilation instead of just debating it
ThinkExtension2328 · reddit · 2026-11-04
Amid controversy over Sam Altman/OpenAI restricting decompilation of their models, a Reddit poster argues vendors are free to set their own terms but raises a more technical question: why is decompiling treated only as a controversy rather than a capability benchmark? Just as SWE-bench measures software engineering, he suggests building an analogous 'SWD bench' to systematically evaluate LLM decompilation. Community viewpoint with no concrete proposal details.
