MITthe AI beat index

Both lines are set to 100 at 11 Sept 2026, the first day they share, so they can be read against each other. That is division — nothing here is smoothed, filled in or forecast. The number above the chart is still the real one.

That day brought 358 open-weight models. That is 10% more than last week.
