PhiBench C
AI benchmark · Math
What is PhiBench?
PhiBench is an internal benchmark designed to evaluate diverse skills and reasoning abilities of language models, covering a wide range of tasks including coding (debugging, extending incomplete code, explaining code snippets) and mathematics (identifying proof errors, generating related problems). Created by Microsoft's research team to address limitations of standard academic benchmarks and guide the development of the Phi-4 model.
Tier C
Niche: a handful of models scored, or built by an RL vendor.
How much stands behind a tier: usage, who backs it, a confirmed line from its own site or paper, and a clear read on X. High with three of the four, medium with two, low otherwise.
- 7 models scored
- in curated RL directories (1 pt)
How we got to tier C
- Adoption: 7 models scored. Tier C.
- Not yet read on X.
- In curated RL directories: 1 point, a floor of none.
- Not yet confirmed by a line from its own site or paper.
A clear view on X moves a tier one step up or down; most entries don't move. How tiers work.
Not on the map yet: no line from its own site or paper places it in a domain.
