finally some numbers that actually help people building real things

was so tired of benchmarks based on balls bouncing around in a box 😭

super powerful information for doing seo right in 2026

[Tim Soulo 🇺🇦 @timsoulo]

In the last 6 months at @Ahrefs, we analyzed over 1 billion data points across 14 studies. Here's what we learned about AI search optimization:

1) "Best X" blog listicles are the single most prominent content format cited by AI chatbots. They make up 43.8% of all page types cited by ChatGPT specifically.

2) 67% of ChatGPT's top 1,000 citations come from sources marketers can't influence: Wikipedia (29.7%), homepages (23.8%), app stores (6.6%). Only 32.3% are influenceable content like educational pages, reviews, news, and blog posts.

3) 28.3% of ChatGPT's most-cited pages have zero Google organic visibility. These pages get cited repeatedly by ChatGPT despite not ranking in Google at all. A completely separate discovery layer.

4) ChatGPT only cites about 50% of the URLs it retrieves. It fetches dozens of pages per query but uses half as background context without attribution. This means that being retrieved and being cited are very different things.

5) Adding schema markup had zero meaningful impact on AI citations. AI Overviews actually dipped −4.6%, while AI Mode (+2.4%) and ChatGPT (+2.2%) showed changes indistinguishable from zero.

6) YouTube mentions have the highest correlation (0.737) with AI brand visibility out of all the factors we studied (including all the conventional SEO metrics like backlinks, page count, DR, etc). This held true for both Google-owned and OpenAI products.

7) AI Overviews reduce clicks to the #1 result by 58%. That’s up from 34.5% just 10 months earlier. The trend is accelerating.

8) 99.9% of AI Overviews appear on informational intent queries. Transactional, navigational, and local searches are almost entirely AIO-free. Shopping triggers AIOs just 3.2% of the time.

9) For a given search query, Google’s AI Mode and AI Overviews reach the same conclusions 86% of the time — but cite almost entirely different sources (only 13.7% citation overlap).

10) AI Overviews change every 2.15 days on average, with 70% of content differing between consecutive observations. But semantic similarity stays at 0.95. The words, sources, and entities constantly shuffle, but the actual meaning barely moves.

Chinese sellers on Xianyu & Taobao are selling GPT-4o & Claude 3.5 API access for basically nothing.

100 million+ tokens per day… for ~$1.

They built OpenAI-compatible proxies, stacked cheap regional accounts + free trials, then logged every single prompt & response.

That data gets sold straight to Chinese AI labs for training.

Arbitrage + data resale = $$$

How can OpenAI and Anthropic combat this?

[Claude @claudeai]

Effective today, we are:

1) Doubling Claude Code’s 5-hour rate limits for Pro, Max, and Team plans;

2) Removing the peak hours limit reduction on Claude Code for Pro and Max plans; and

3) Substantially raising our API rate limits for Opus models.

Never pay for a screen recording app again

[Ihtesham Ali @ihtesham2005]

I was paying $229 for Screen Studio.

Then I found this repo and uninstalled it the same night.

Recordly is a free, MIT licensed screen recorder and editor that ships every feature I was paying for auto-zoom animations, cursor smoothing, motion blur, native macOS capture, and a full timeline editor.

→ Apple-style zoom animations with automatic suggestions from cursor activity
→ Native ScreenCaptureKit recording on macOS 12.3+
→ Cursor smoothing, motion blur, click bounce, macOS-style cursor assets
→ Smooth pan transitions between zoom regions
→ Timeline trim, speed ramps, annotations, manual zoom spans
→ Wallpapers, gradients, padding, rounded corners, blur, drop shadows
→ MP4 and GIF export at any aspect ratio
→ .recordly project files so you can reopen edits later

macOS, Windows, Linux. Scene composition runs on PixiJS. Native Swift helpers handle macOS cursor telemetry.

In today’s episode of Anthropic trying to kill their business 😭

[Nazran F. @nazranf_]

Claude is on a generational run to destroy their business.

It goes down way too frequently and people are already mad about their token usage spikes as well as some apparent nerfs to Opus.

4 out of 5 other devs I know switched to Codex in the last month.

They are losing it.

[Nazran F. @nazranf_]

In the last month, Claude has experienced approximately 22 incidents.

Mostly brief degraded performance events, with around 5–6 clearer partial outages.

@grok @outsource_ @jun_song @huggingface @grok how do these numbers compare to the top coding models available on the market like claude and openai models?

[Nazran F. @nazranf_]

@grok @outsource_ @jun_song @huggingface @grok how did it do on be benchmarks for coding?

[Nazran F. @nazranf_]

@grok @outsource_ @jun_song @huggingface @grok what tasks is this model good for?

[Nazran F. @nazranf_]

The most valuable 2 line tweet I have seen in a while.

Depending on what you built with:
Python → ruff + vulture (or deadcode / skylos for fewer false positives + framework magic)
JS/TS → knip (or rev-dep if you want ~20× speed)
Go → deadcode (or skylos)
Java → PMD (or Azul Code Inventory for real runtime dead code)
C#/.NET → Roslyn Unused Code Remover (or ReSharper)
Ruby → dead_code_detector gem (runtime production scan)
PHP → phpdcd

Run often. Your codebase will thank you.

[Gabriele Berton @gabriberton]

Vibe coding creates lots of dead code. Run this often. You're welcome

--- Delete all dead code. Use ruff and vulture ---

Just as everyone starts roasting Claude for its terrible usage limits, OpenAI drops the $100 Pro tier with 5x more Codex than Plus (and a temp 10x promo).

Peak chess. Steal the heavy users while the competition bleeds.

[OpenAI @OpenAI]

We’re updating our ChatGPT Pro and Plus subscriptions to better support the growing use of Codex.

We’re introducing a new $100/month Pro tier. This new tier offers 5x more Codex usage than Plus and is best for longer, high-effort Codex sessions.

In ChatGPT, this new Pro tier still offers access to all Pro features, including the exclusive Pro model and unlimited access to Instant and Thinking models.

To celebrate the launch, we’re increasing Codex usage for a limited time through May 31st so that Pro $100 subscribers get up to 10x usage of ChatGPT Plus on Codex to build your most ambitious ideas.

[Nazran F. @nazranf_]

We’re cooked.

[Nazran F. @nazranf_]

Beyond impressive, some people are just built different.

Clearly, my ideas don’t idea like his ideas 😅

[Farza 🇵🇰🇺🇸 @FarzaTV]

I built this thing called Clicky.

It's an AI teacher that lives as a buddy next to your cursor.

It can see your screen, talk to you, and even point at stuff, kinda like having a real teacher next to you.

I've been using it the past few days to learn Davinci Resolve, 10/10.

[Nazran F. @nazranf_]

I agree that the wording can be improved.

However the idea that uses should be refunded if their startup isn’t acquired is absurd. So is the idea that you should be able to post as many startups as you want for sale for the $29.

You’re getting real estate on one of the most spoken about websites on X for a cheap price tag of $29, if it doesn’t sell you need to bite the bullet and accept that maybe it wasn’t just good enough and work on improving it so you can sell it down the line. It’s not @trust_mrr responsibility to ensure that your startup sells, it just ensures that it’s discoverable to a lot of buyers.

Secondly, if people could post as many startups as they want for $29, the platform would get absolutely flooded with startups, making it impossible for buyers to get to the good ones. The lesser the startups on there, the more likely it is for any of them to get acquired at all.

In fact I would go as far saying that the listing should be allowed for a specific time frame such as 3 months or something. Then needs to be relisted again for a price.

Almost no other platform like this exists where we as devs and solo founders can sell such small revenue startups, so it’s beneficial for all of us if it doesn’t drop in quality and can keep up a good enough rep so buyers keep coming back to it.

[Nazran F. @nazranf_]

The new X API pay-per-use month model is a HUGE step in the right direction.

Before it was crazy expensive — $200/month just for the Basic tier or $5k for Pro. A ton of devs gave up on it and started building on sketchy 3rd-party grey-area APIs instead.

Now there’s no monthly fee at all, just pay for what you actually use. Finally a reason for everyone to switch back!

[Chris Park @chrisparkX]

We’ve made major upgrades to X API:

• Pay-Per-Use now GA worldwide
• XMCP Server + xurl for agents
• Official Python & TypeScript XDKs
• API Playground - free realistic simulations

New releases coming will be a game changer.
