Nico Christie Proposes X as AI Evaluation Tool

Nico Christie, co-founder and CPO of Fundamental Research Labs, posted on X about the AI industry's evaluation shortcomings. He noted that observers often joke the platform itself serves as the real test for models. Christie proposed taking that idea seriously by using attention on X as a core evaluation signal. He shared a screen recording of a related project site that opens on its homepage. The post frames visible activity and engagement on the platform as a direct method for assessing AI performance rather than relying on conventional benchmarks.
