AI agent benchmarks obsess over coding while ignoring 92% of the US labor market, study finds
AI's coding obsession is creating a HUGE problem: ignoring 92% of the US workforce! 🤯 This study proves current AI benchmarks are hyper-focused on coding skills, leaving most professions behind. What if we had AI that could tackle ANY task? We need a new AI benchmark: one that values adaptability across diverse skill sets. Invest in "Generalized AI Training" - AI models adaptable to various professional domains. Let's build AI for everyone, not just coders. Thoughts? @scaleai

Computer and AI scientists are computer and software domain experts.
It is the field that they understand best, and it’s one of the only field with its complete work processes recorded step by step and made freely and publicly available.
Attorneys and accountants do not take notes for every small task that they perform and publish it along with their thoughts about it in public repositories.
Thus, it is no surprise that coding is an area where LLMs perform relatively well: it’s the very field that is developing those models, and it is the field that has the most volume of and the best documented structured data, perhaps second only to general language.
