Background & analysis
On 2026-11-06, The Decoder reported that SemiAnalysis has released a new benchmark called GDPx, which puts AI agents through simulated knowledge work spanning a range of fields from chip design to quant trading. According to the results, no model scored above 12 percent, with Claude Opus 5.5 holding a narrow lead over Gemini 4 Carbon. The report also notes that critics have pointed to the small number of tasks per domain and to uneven testing conditions as weaknesses of the benchmark. As of now, this is the only available coverage, and SemiAnalysis has not publicly responded to the criticism. The story therefore remains at the stage of an initial disclosure of the benchmark results and the questions they have already raised.

How is heat calculated?About the methodHide
Heat counts how many independent sources covered a story in the last 48 hours: one source counts once no matter how many posts it published, decaying with a 24-hour half-life. What ranks first is what many people are talking about.
