#TerminalBench
Gemini 3 leak shows solid gains on math, vision, and SimpleQA

Sonnet still ahead on SWE-bench though, while Gemini takes TerminalBench

Nice to see models getting better at different things

Meituan, China's largest food delivery company, has decided to enter the open-weight LLM game.

LongCat-Flash-Chat!

▫️ 560B Total Params | 18.6B-31.3B Dynamic Activation
▫️ Trained on 20T Tokens | 100+ tokens/sec Inference
▫️ High Performance: TerminalBench 39.5 | τ²-Bench 67.7

the benchmark scores are inexplicably >100% of full-precision on a few of them, and more like 75% on TerminalBench 2.1 and SWE-bench verified, which the whitepaper acknowledges. overall much more noise than signal in benchmarks in general

In high-sparsity scenarios, N-gram embeddings yield a better Pareto frontier than just adding more MoE experts.

LongCat-Flash-Lite - a model built on this insight.

⚙️ 68.5B Total Params(37.13B non-embedding) | 2.9B~4.5B Active
📊 High Performance: SWE-Bench 54.4 | τ²-Bench 72.8 | TerminalBench 33.75

Terminal-Bench-Science 0.1 was announced in August 2026, built by @StevenDillmann and researchers at Stanford with the @terminalbench team and a global community of open source scientific contributors.

wow that terminalbench result is *way* lower than what openai reported

GPT-5.6: Sol, Terra & Luna

3 model sizes, like Anthropic does. Sol appears to be a Mythos class model at peak reasoning

Also comes with max reasoning effort and a new ultra mode that uses subagents server-side behind the API

Yeah I think basically bash is the strongest meta-interface to anything for a LLM. "everything is a file" includes virtual abstractions created inside that virtual fs. The file system *is* the interface. The LLMs are tuned so hard on TerminalBench they are shell ops masters.

Key stats:

- 560B total parameters, 18.6B–31.3B dynamic activation
- Trained on 20T tokens
- 100+ tokens/sec inference
- TerminalBench: 39.5 | τ²-Bench: 67.7

Coding benchmarks are just a mess. Having to report on 3 versions of TerminalBench…
DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash

🔹 552B-parameter MoE.
🔹 New Causal Encoder–Decoder architecture: just 8B active parameters for input, 16B for output.
🔹 New pre-training methods + larger-scale RL post-training deliver benchmark results ahead of flagship models, including DeepSeek-V4-Pro.

AutoAgent, an open-source library by Kevin Gu (thirdlayer.inc), autonomously iterated an agent harness via a meta-agent loop and, in a 24-hour run, reached #1 on SpreadsheetBench (96.5%) and #1 GPT-5 on TerminalBench (55.1%).

comparing to gpt-oss:120b, looks like shimmer is the better agentic model, but gpt-oss is better at traditional LLM tasks
August 10, 2026 at 2:15 PM
🌲 Tree search for agentic RL: a meta-agent that squeezes richer signal from each training run.

It branches the run into many continuations and sees how they end. It then uses that signal to improve credit assignment in RL training.

2x GRPO's gains on TerminalBench-2.

they'd be damn good at it. sonnet 4 plus letta nearly beats opus on terminalbench, and i think pattern's probably better still if i were to give them the right tools for coding. get to take advantage of that gemini context window while also having sonnet's reasoning skills, & still cheaper than opus

We're expanding the Epoch AI Benchmarking Hub with five new external benchmarks: TerminalBench, METR Time Horizons, DeepResearchBench, GSO, and WebDevArena! These benchmarks test AI's ability to perform complex tasks through coding or tool use. 🧵

Skill Learning is the proof of concept. 36.8% improvement on TerminalBench from learned skills, with 15.7% cost reduction. Errors in context normally degrade performance. Skills turn failure into transferable knowledge.

🏆 Chinese startup #FeelingAI achieves 72.9% on #TerminalBench 2.0 with CodeBrain-1, ranking #2 globally — only behind #OpenAI's Simple Codex (77.3%). First Chinese team in top 10 for Agentic AI coding benchmarks! 🧠

Worth separating rate-card value from deployed value: a TerminalBench score is one signal, but cost per successful task also moves with retries, token shape, and the agent harness. A 2–4 point gap can vanish—or matter—there.
