Merging 7 weak agents creates top deep research score of 64.38
By
–
3/3 We took 7 weak agents (ranks 7-13, none scoring >45) from the leaderboard & merged them into 1 report/task. Essentially boosting for deep research. The result: New #1 DRB II TotalScore of 64.38. Full write-up here:

How we beat the deep research agent by going the other way
By
–
2/3 Six months ago, the best deep research agent scored ~45. Since, everyone's tried to beat this score with better agents. We went the other way.

Microsoft’s MAI-Thinking-1 avoids third-party synthetic data and AI content
By
–
Most AI model releases focus on benchmarks. This one is more interesting because of what Microsoft says it did not use. With MAI-Thinking-1, Microsoft claims no third-party LLM-generated synthetic data during pre-training, active filtering of AI-generated content, and no hidden
