On a pure-planning LisanBench subtask, OpenAI models top the chart

scaling01 · x · 2026-10-25

scaling01 tested a derived LisanBench subtask with knowledge recall and graph construction removed: models get a 100-word graph and must find the longest simple path from a start word, approximating pure planning. OpenAI models dominate — without the edit-distance rule, GPT 6 Astra medium scores 56,140 (+659%), Gemini 4 Argon high 51,312 (+579%), GPT 6.1 Sol medium 49,887 (+731%), all three confirmed "loopers" at the top. The chart shows GPT-6.1-Sol reaching higher bank scores with far fewer output tokens across reasoning efforts than Muse Wonder Full and Opus 5.5.
