## Summary

Varun Mohan says he likes new evals where the highest score stays under 15%, pointing to the jump from Argon to Carbon and the cost-effectiveness of Gemini models. He expects the leaderboard to change substantially within a few months given the pace of progress. The post is a reply to SemiAnalysis's release of GDPx, an agentic capabilities benchmark on which the best model scores 12%.

## Post

Always great to see new evals where the highest score is less than 15%. Also, cool to see the jump from Argon to Carbon and how cost effective the Gemini models are for their level of performance.

Excited to see how this leaderboard looks like in a couple months given the rate of progress.
