Three new benchmarks — DeepSWE (by Datacurve), ProgramBench (Meta/Stanford/Harvard), and ITBench-AA (IBM/Artificial Analysis) — are positioned as more rigorous replacements for the SWE-bench family, which models have largely saturated. DeepSWE tests feature implementation using private codebases and human-written problems; ProgramBench evaluates agents' ability to recreate functional programs from scratch; ITBench-AA measures root-cause diagnosis in real-world IT incident scenarios. Current top performers include GPT-5.5 (70% on DeepSWE), Claude Opus 4.7 (46.7% on ITBench-AA), and Claude Opus 4.7 (3% on ProgramBench at the 95% pass threshold), illustrating that even frontier models have substantial headroom.
IBM Research and Artificial Analysis have released ITBench-AA, a benchmark targeting agentic AI performance on enterprise IT operations tasks. Frontier models evaluated on the benchmark score below 50%, indicating significant capability gaps in real-world IT automation scenarios. The benchmark appears to be the first of its kind focused specifically on agentic enterprise IT workflows, covering tasks relevant to site reliability engineering and IT operations.
