Every score
one row per source and configuration — nothing averaged away
| Benchmark | Score | Configuration | Source | Run |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| MATH level 5 | 64.8 ±1.0 | default | Epoch AI | 2025-01-27 |
| GPQA diamond | 56.5 ±2.8 | default | Epoch AI | 2025-01-27 |
| FrontierMath-v1 | 0.9 ±0.8 | default · 2 runs | Epoch AI | 2025-03-07 |
| OTIS Mock AIME 2024-2025 | 15.8 ±4.3 | default | Epoch AI | 2025-02-25 |
The leading figure for a benchmark is the median across its configurations, so one heroic high-effort run cannot set the number.
