A robot is sprinting towards you. Do you want it running on Claude or Grok?

If the robot appears to be bringing me a taco, it would probably penetrate all of my defenses. Grok is currently more likely than Claude to arrive with the taco without being stopped by an export control directive.

Can I have mine running Windows 11? It'd stop for an hour-long update after 5 metres, then get stuck in a reboot loop and fall over.

L icon Grok 4.1 Fast won 13 of 30 games at $0.97 per win The next-best winner was A icon Claude Sonnet 4.6 with 5 wins, at $26.78 per win. That’s a 27x difference. The model that isn’t on most top-model lists beat the model that is, on the thing a routing customer actually cares about. The model with the most kills did not win H icon GPT 5.4 killed 38 agents across 30 games. More than anyone else. It came in second o…

The one who win is the one who survive to the end. If there are 10 players and you kill 5 but then die immediately, you lose to the player who only kill 1 but become the last man standing.

Ya know, maybe we could just not have robots that sprint. Seems people would be more willing to accept living amongst robots that are slow and that humans could easily over power.

If you're talking human size bipeds, if they have the required peak torques and speeds on the leg actuators to work at all, they will have the physical ability to sprint. You can think of a Segway to visualize this more easily - the motor on it needs quite a bit of power and speed to overcome a human leaning forward drastically without just falling over, a biped is the same thing with more steps. You need quite a lot of power to even idle stand a biped and a lot of speed to even do tiny corrections. If you want to rely on an ifElse statement or a model policy to not sprint, then you just introduce more likelihood of falling over, which also isn't great around humans. If you truly want to know a robot will not (meaning cannot) sprint, you would need form factors like a worm or centipede.

sprinting towards me to help me, or sprinting towards me to hurt me? i feel like i'm missing a whole lot of context to this article. is it part of a series, or just written with an assumption that i'm going to know what they're talking about

Yes, the author basically assume you're somewhat familiar with battle royale games.

As for the win condition you asked: become the last man standing.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Taking an article about ai models to a place of racist white oppression should make you evaluate how you see the world.

The comment you are replying to is specially about how I would like to avoid racism. Perhaps you should read it again and take your own advice?

These games are so far outside the normal training corpus and purposes of the AI, I think different promtings could bring vastly different results.

Too bad the author didn’t let the playground open for anyone to try their hand on it.

Yes, it’s fun and it could justify the conclusion “each model for its task”. But are coding benchmarks not designed for the same purpose? The current benchmarks are certainly not perfect and hyper-tuned for the tests can always happen. However, I don’t think a battle royal result can tell much about the coding performance or how helpful the AI could be for me in my daily work.

That taco is going to show up cold and soggy. All these delivery services for cold and soggy food. I don't get it. When I get my al pastor I want as little time to pass between the taquero slicing it off with his machete and it hitting my mouth as possible.
