  3. NoLiMa

    Official repository for "NoLiMa: Long-Context Evaluation Beyond Literal Matching"

    Updated results from the authors: https://github.com/adobe-research/NoLiMa

    It's the best known performer on this benchmark, but still falls off even relatively modest context lengths. (Cutting edge reasoning models like Gemini 2.5 Pro haven't been evaluated due to their cost and might be better.)

  4. chat.md

    An md file as a chat interface and editable history in one.

    Did some quick tests. I believe its the same model as Quasar. It struggles with agentic loop [1]. You'd have to force it to do tool calls.

    Tool use ability feels ability better than gemini-2.5-pro-exp [2] which struggles with JSON schema understanding sometimes.

    Llama 4 has suprising agentic capabilities, better than both of them [3] but isn't as intelligent as the others.

  5. openai-cookbook

    Examples and guides for using the OpenAI API

    Sam Altman wrote in February that GPT-4.5 would be "our last non-chain-of-thought model" [1], but GPT-4.1 also does not have internal chain-of-thought [2].

    It seems like OpenAI keeps changing its plans. Deprecating GPT-4.5 less than 2 months after introducing it also seems unlikely to be the original plan. Changing plans is necessarily a bad thing, but I wonder why.

    Did they not expect this model to turn out as well as it did?
