LengthCtrl (Tencent)

Models write text that must meet a requested length, in a Tencent in-house test. Task and scoring details are not published.

Seen in the Hunyuan-A13B-Instruct card. Scoring method is a guess from the task type. Qwen reports an in-house test with the same name (lengthctrl-qwen), and I could not tell if they share data.

Hunyuan-A13B-Instruct leads with 55.4%

Best score per model as labs report them in their own cards. Labs pick their own settings, so these compare less cleanly than independent runs.

Scores over time

All the scores we have, one dot each, so a model tested at several settings appears more than once.

One system card reports it

Besides launch posts, we read the system cards, model cards and technical reports labs publish with a release. They report far more, including safety and frontier-risk tests.
