How we choose

Two-Level Meta-Rubrics for Evaluating Open-Ended Generation

“Evaluating 14 frontier and open-weight models, we find the benchmark genuinely challenging (best score 58.7% from Gemini 3.1 Pro), highly discriminative, and robust to the choice of judge.”

The authors, in the abstract

GAMUT, a Benchmark for Factual Completeness

MetaBenchmarkarXivPDF

KernelBench-Verified

“Under verified single-turn evaluation with seven frontier LLMs, we find that the best-performing model (GPT-5.5) achieves a 0.88x geometric mean speedup, significantly lower than the 1.43x speedup observed under the standard evaluation protocol.”

MetaBenchmark

RoboTTT

“RoboTTT trained with 8K-timestep context outperforms the same model pretrained with 1K timesteps by 62%, suggesting context length as a new scaling axis for robot foundation models.”

NVIDIA

Xiaomi-Robotics-1

“Notably, it establishes a new state-of-the-art with a 57.6% success rate on RoboCasa365, surpassing the previous best of 46.6%.”

Hidden in Thought

“Our results show that harmful reasoning transfers at both the trace and pattern levels, motivating defences that evaluate reasoning context in addition to final outputs.”

Ring-Zero

“However, we find that naive scaling often suffers from poor readability, token redundancy, and a lack of adaptive reasoning depth.”

Value Leakage

“We find that models are influenced by different types of values, including preferences for morally good outcomes, for the company that developed them, and for some human leisure activities over others.”
