Benchmarking GPT-5 on 400 real-world code reviews

news.ycombinator.com Dedy Kredo 2025-12-05 08:00:22

GPT-5 is now available in Qodo’s platform for all free and paid users. Get started today. At Qodo, we believe benchmarks should reflect how developers actually work. That’s why we built the PR Benchmark—a benchmark designed to assess how well language models handle tasks like code review, suggesting improvements, and understanding developer intent. Unlike many public benchmarks, the PR Benchmark is private, and its data is not publicly released. This ensures models haven’t seen it during train

gizmodo.com Luc Olinga 2025-12-06 11:40:09

It was billed as a “one-of-a-kind interview,” but it may be remembered as a new low for journalism. Jim Acosta, the former CNN anchor turned Substack host, has ignited a firestorm of controversy by conducting what may be one of the most unsettling interviews of the AI era: a televised conversation with an AI-generated version of Joaquin Oliver, the 17-year-old who was killed in the 2018 mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. The interview aired at the reques
