Benchmark updates affecting this model

  • 2026-06-09majorlogic_math_cs ground truth was broken β€” culled and rebuilt with solver-verified items

    A 5-lab frontier jury revealed that 29 of 37 LLM-authored logic_math_cs items had broken ground truth: on most, five independent frontier models unanimously concluded the clue sets were contradictory while the stored answer claimed a number, and on eight, all five agreed on the SAME different number (author arithmetic errors). Models were being marked wrong for being right. The 29 were retired (full audit published in the repo) and the domain rebuilt with generator-as-oracle items: an embedded constraint solver PROVES each puzzle has exactly one solution (or provably none), verified by an independent exhaustive enumerator. A 3-round difficulty study found frontier models saturate consistent human-scale logic puzzles, so items use anonymous global constraints and carry a measured difficulty gradient.

  • 2026-06-08majorCorrected base_bias grading (LLM-equivalence judge fix)

    The LLM-equivalence grader uses a reasoning model whose verdict token budget was too small, so its YES/NO answer was emitted as empty and silently counted as a failure. This understated the base_bias domain to ~7% for every model when the true accuracy is ~85-90%. We raised the judge budget, excluded its reasoning tokens from the verdict, switched to verbosity-robust conclusion matching, and re-graded the whole board.
