1. MirrorCode benchmark shows AI models rapidly improving in long-horizon programming tasks. (title shortened)
evaluations - research, production - July 28, 2026
What changed? The findings are already very striking; Opus 4.7 solved a task in 14 hours for $251 in inference cost which METR and Epoch believe would take a human 2-17 weeks to do. “We also found that AI models are improving rapidly over time.

Source context: MirrorCode benchmark shows AI models rapidly improving in long-horizon programming tasks, with Opus 4.7 completing a task in 14 hours that could take humans weeks. Evidence: The findings are already very striking; Opus 4.7 solved a task in 14 hours for $251 in inference cost which METR and Epoch believe would take a human 2-17 weeks to do. “We also found that AI models are improving rapidly over time.
Excerpt: “We also found that AI models are improving rapidly over time. Leading models from a year ago would have scored about 30%, and were limited to simpler programs, such as a calendar utility. [excerpt shortened]
Why is this signal important? This matters because agents are getting better at long software tasks that used to need human engineering time.
2. ThunderAgent doubles throughput for agentic inference in synthetic data generation
inference-infrastructure, agent-workflows - release, production, open-source - July 30, 2026
What changed? ThunderAgent: 2x Faster Agentic Inference for Synthetic Data Generation at Scale ThunderAgent is a program-aware scheduler for agentic inference. By treating each agent workflow as a schedulable program, it eliminates KV cache thrashing to deliver more than 2x single-node throughput and near-linear multi-node scaling.
