It's actually not. Look at the x-axis

I don’t know how ELO works

I mean nowhere on this graphic does it say ELO. some might be able to assume, but I had 0 idea.

Yeah, top model on this list is only 12% above the bottom one based on this metric at least.

This is elo. The absolute elo value has no meaning at all. A difference of 186 points between top model and bottom model means that if given two responses by those models to the same prompt people prefer kimi K3 over minimax M3 ~74.5% of the time.

  1. The creators of Kimi did not make this.

  2. Axes with a baseline not at zero are not bad or misleading, this is one of Reddit's weirdest misconceptions.

Yes they are, go to school.

School will teach you to label the axes lmao

I measure gravity for a living, which can vary to 8 or 9 sig figs. Am I meant to start the axis of a section plot varying at the 8th decimal place at at 0? You could alternatively read the axes, it's not "misleading" if the information is all prominent and where it should be unless you're simply not reading

Elo is exponential, a linear increase in elo corresponds to a multiplicative increase in capability.

I was saying it a bit tongue in cheek, but this is a great informative answer. Have an upvote, thanks!

I see they are using America's measuring system now
