Grok 4.6: score and benchmark evidence

Historical release · · xAI

114.0 points · Rank 5 among 19 ranked models · Stability range 102.5–126.3 points.

Rank follows the point estimate; it does not establish statistically significant superiority. The scale is anchored at mean 100, SD 15 in the frozen calibration cohort, not human IQ or a percentage.

One capability score combines evidence across seven equally weighted domains. Related benchmark variants share a family budget, and influence from one evaluator is capped.

Published benchmark evidence

10 results contribute to this score, from 59 collected results and 10 contributing benchmark families. Counts are not independent sample sizes.

Only results with a matched source record, metric and documented configuration contribute. Developer-reported results are eligible when their configuration is clear. Unresolved records remain in the database with their exclusion reason. Archived reviews and live source checks are labelled separately.

The bar estimates score stability under the scoring assumptions: a fixed calibration and comparable benchmark availability. It resamples benchmark families and evaluators while keeping each domain’s evidence strength fixed, then adds a frozen correction learned from missing-evidence tests. Benchmark count and domain coverage both affect that correction. It does not add a second full capability-posterior draw or uncertainty from changing the reference calibration. It is not a guarantee under selective publication, new benchmark domains or future model releases.

Reporting sensitivity: ±20.6 points. Sensitivity to selectively published results. This stress range is not a confidence interval or a probability statement.
