Every score
one row per source and configuration — nothing averaged away
| Benchmark | Score | Configuration | Source | Run |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| MATH level 5 | 89.9 ±0.7 | default | Epoch AI | 2025-03-10 |
| OTIS Mock AIME 2024-2025 | 51.4 ±6.1 | default | Epoch AI | 2025-03-07 |
| GPQA diamond | 55.7 ±3.0 | default | Epoch AI | 2025-03-10 |
The leading figure for a benchmark is the median across its configurations, so one heroic high-effort run cannot set the number.
