U-Artifacts

Seed1.8 49.2% Fading

Models build interactive artifacts such as small apps and pages for 199 cases across 13 topics. A GUI agent simulates a non-expert user to grade interactivity, looks and fit to the need.

In-house Seed benchmark with four task families. It is a different test from Tencent ArtifactsBench.

Seed1.8 leads with 49.2%

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.
