I Tried Making my Own (Bad) LLM Benchmark to Cheat in Escape Rooms
Briefly

DeepSeek's recent model launch, the R1, has garnered attention for its impressive performance relative to cost, potentially transforming the large language models (LLMs) space. However, the hype surrounding new model releases often obscures what performance metrics truly mean. The article explains that LLM benchmarks are essentially structured tests akin to SATs for AI, used to evaluate models on various tasks. These benchmarks incorporate diverse evaluation techniques depending on the task, allowing researchers to compare models reliably and explore their capabilities effectively.
DeepSeek's R1 model shows potential to disrupt the LLM landscape, combining efficiency and performance in a way that challenges existing benchmarks.
LLM benchmarks serve as structured tests designed to evaluate a model's performance on tasks, enabling consistent comparisons across different language models.
