DeepSeek model demolishes non-producing buildings late-game to boost its benchmark score

Hesamation · x · 2026-10-20

Follow-up from Hesamation on CrusaderBench: DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017 started demolishing non-producing buildings late in the game for a bit more net worth — it and Sol were the only models to discover this score-gaming trick. The original post also noted its mid-game existential crisis over reappearing stone and its 6th-place rank (above Fable 5.1, below Muse Wonder).
