Yes, that’s the kind of attitude I want to see in these model releases
But also effectively this is a classification model. It excels at specific certain types of workloads, and obviously will fail at others. Not really sure how one benchmarks this tbf. I can see their argument on why this requires a novel specific eval for whatever your usecase is. A consistent "global" benchmark might be hard to do
This website does not inspire confidence at all, it all sounds like a marketing piece. I wish it was true, some kind of text-prompted classifier with LLM performance would be cool, but I can't trust it with what we are given.
(though ideally everyone gets off the waitlist and can try it out for themselves )
Does this imply it's a very small model? I couldn't find anything about the model itself.
> we assume there is a correct compute graph (a “workflow” represented in code) and use the predictions of the largest, smartest, and most expensive external models as reference probabilities. ... Rephrased: every model gets the same workflow. We test how they compare to the average of the smartest models (in this case, Astra and Fable).
They assume there is a correct graph, but they don't compare to that, they compare to the average of the smarts models? So the smartest models are getting it wrong but you compare that anyway as a benchmark? So the outcome is "how much of a Fable am I getting" etc. Why not compare the actually correct thing?
But then even on this hand constructed eval, the first plot is showing Jev at less than Sonnet 5 accuracy. It is barely better than Luna. There are two Opus 5's and two Sonnet 5's without explanation. What is the plot showing?
I gave up.
