DeepLearning.AI engagement report
@DeepLearningAI - 347K followers on X
Measured over 16 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on September 3, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 150 interactions against 347K followers, an engagement rate of 0.043%. Measured over 16 original posts, its engagement rate beats 38% of 4,310 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 13K times each, and 1.19% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 3.65% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.53 post a day over the last 30 days, though only 37% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 15:00 UTC, and Wednesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 16 posts sampled, 81% carry an image or video and 94% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 664 interactions, about 4.4x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #ai, #deeplearningai, #machinelearning.

Compared with accounts its own size
DeepLearning.AI's engagement rate beats 38% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (4,310 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 6 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.
On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 47% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.
Where this sits in the catalog
At 0.043%, DeepLearning.AI sits above the 25th percentile of the 41,681 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the below the median band, which runs 0.013% to 0.083%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 15:00 UTC, and Wednesday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

AI can write more code than any team can review by hand, and a pull request can look fine while hiding a security issue or missing a requirement. In our new short course, AI Code Review, built in collaboration with @QodoAI and taught by @nnennahacks, you'll learn the practices that make AI code review effective: review before you open a pull request, give the reviewer full context about your codebase, and triage findings by risk. Then you'll build your own review agent, from a context engine that finds the right code to a team of specialized reviewers. Enroll for free: https://t.co/ouU2lu3WDR

Most AI agents still respond in plain text. In our latest course, Build Interactive Agents with Generative UI, you’ll create agents that generate UIs like charts, forms, and interactive components on demand. Work across the Generative UI spectrum and connect a LangChain agent to a React frontend using CopilotKit and the AG-UI protocol. Made in collaboration with @CopilotKit, and taught by its CEO, @ataiiam. Enroll for free! ➡️ https://t.co/KW2pzTZwH3

Everyone has done it: You build a new application with coding agents and love the toy version so much that you wind up deploying it without first evaluating trade-offs like latency, uptime, and compute costs. And we all know vibe coders who do this every day and only discover the production consequences later. When a developer lacks the proper grounding in software engineering fundamentals, they can’t steer an agent to make the structural decisions needed for building great applications. In this week's letter, Andrew Ng outlines why understanding the full software development stack, from data management to user interfaces, remains essential for AI engineering. Here’s Andrew’s list of the key technical capabilities requiring a knowledgeable human’s guidance: 🏗️ Full-Stack Development: Planning out API design, session management, caching strategies, and asynchronous processing. 🗄️ Data Lifecycle Management: Picking data models and storage infrastructure to maintain consistency and clean feeds for downstream AI systems. 📐 System Architecture Design: Choosing everything from the monolith versus microservice dilemma to load balancing. 🔒 Security and Reliability: Building in smart failure-handling policies to ensure graceful degradation, unit and integration testing, and security and testing — early and often. 🚀 Production Operations: Configuring CI/CD pipelines, managing databases, and creating observability tools for understanding workloads.

Reading these numbers
A typical post picks up 150 interactions against 347K followers, an engagement rate of 0.043%. Measured over 16 original posts, its engagement rate beats 38% of 4,310 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 13K times each, and 1.19% of those impressions turn into an interaction.

- What is DeepLearning.AI's engagement rate on X?
- DeepLearning.AI (@DeepLearningAI) has an engagement rate of 0.043%, based on the median interactions across 16 original posts from the last 30 days against 346,568 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.043%, DeepLearning.AI sits above the 25th percentile of the 41,681 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
- Does @DeepLearningAI have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 38% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (4,310 accounts), which puts it in the middle of its size range group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
- When does @DeepLearningAI post?
- Most posts go out around 15:00 UTC, and Wednesday is its busiest day, at roughly 0.53 posts per day across the measured window.
