AI Engineer shared a clip of Zach Lloyd's AIE NY talk arguing that teams should build benchmarks from their own real coding tasks, to promote its coding-agent summit. @trq212, who gives the closing keynote, also teased what he'll share there.

The clip points to one way to measure coding agents: testing them against a team's own real tasks. Engineering leads evaluating AI coding tools may find this approach useful when deciding how to judge them. The source does not detail the keynote content, so the summit page at ai.engineer/code is the place to check for specifics.
