Frontier AI models are showing a rapid increase in their ability to handle complex tasks, with their reliability doubling every 4.7 months, a rate that has accelerated since late 2024. Recent models like Claude Mythos Preview and GPT-5.5 are outperforming these trends, though their exact capabilities are still being measured due to near-perfect success rates on current benchmarks. This rapid progress challenges existing testing methodologies, as models are pushing the limits of token capacity and agent scaffolding, making it difficult to accurately assess their performance and potential deterioration at scale.
