Model performance

Radar task score: four tests, equal weight. An experimental summary of these tasks, not a universal intelligence rating.

Gemini 3 Flash Preview

Radar task score

Unrated

3/4 core tests · not enough evidence

4 benchmark results for this configuration

Scientific reasoning

GPQA Diamond · 25%

Expert-written science questions; strict multiple-choice scoring. Chance accuracy is 25%.

Gemini 3 Flash Preview 89.4*% Approx. 95% interval: 85.1–93.7%

Novel problem solving

Mystery Game Puzzles · 25%

Best-next-move puzzles in an undisclosed game variant. A narrow reasoning test, not general intelligence.

Gemini 3 Flash Preview 20.0*% Approx. 95% interval: 12.1–27.9%

Advanced mathematics

FrontierMath Tiers 1-3 · 25%

Private v2 mathematics problems with Python tools. Earlier versions and Tier 4 are excluded.

Gemini 3 Flash Preview Not available

Factual answers

SimpleQA Verified · 25%

Correct factual answers under a guessing prompt, graded by a model. Not a hallucination or abstention score.

Gemini 3 Flash Preview 66.8*% Approx. 95% interval: 63.9–69.7%

Competition mathematics

OTIS Mock AIME 2024-2025 · Separate result

Competition problems with model-extracted answers checked against an exact key. Earlier grading procedures are excluded.

Gemini 3 Flash Preview 95.6*% Approx. 95% interval: 89.5–100.0%

Bars show reported task scores. Whiskers are approximate 95% intervals where standard errors are available. Different reasoning budgets are not equal-cost tests. Missing results are never zero.
