LiveBench, explained simply
LiveBench is a public AI benchmark. It asks models questions on math, coding, reasoning, language and more.
Its questions are updated over time. That makes it harder for a model to have seen the answers during training.
This matters because many older tests leak into training data. Fresh questions give a fairer picture.
Higher is better. Still, no test covers everything, so use it alongside others.
On ITG Now, the AI models page includes LiveBench scores, with a link to the source.
