Mia Glaese, VP of Research at OpenAI who oversees Codex and alignment work, and Olivia Watkins, a Frontier Evals evaluator focused on contamination and evaluation design, discuss why SWE‑Bench Verified became saturated and contaminated. They walk through its human curation, show examples of contamination and narrow tests, and explain the move toward tougher, more diverse benchmarks that measure longer‑horizon coding tasks and real‑world product skills.
