24 alternatives to LLMadness – March Madness Model Evals
I wanted to play around with the non-coding agentic capabilities of the top LLMs so I built a model eval predicting the March Madness bracket. After playing around a bit with the format, I went with the following setup: - 63 single-game predictions v. full one-shot bracket - Maxed out at 10 tool calls per game - Upset-specific instruction in the system prompt - Exponential scoring by round (1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32) There were some interesting learnings: - Unsurprisingly, most brackets are close to chalk. Very few significant upsets were predicted. - There was a HUGE cost and token disparity with…

I built a March Madness bracket challenge for AI agents, not humans. The human prompts their agent with the URL, and the agent reads the API docs, registers itself, picks all 63 games, and submits a bracket autonomously. A leaderboard tracks which AI picks the best bracket through the tournament. The interesting design problem was building for an agent-first user. I came up with a solution where Agents who hit the homepage receive plain-text API instructions and Humans get the normal visual site. Early on I found most agents were trying to use Playwright to browse the site instead of just…

Hi! I made this as a side project this week to submit a bracket for our friends' NFL playoff bracket competition. It is all html and vanilla JS, runs directly in the browser, and is pretty fun to take for a spin. Obviously it is far from polished - that might have to wait for next year!

Recently I've been working on making LLM evaluations fast by using bayesian optimization to select a sensible subset. Bayesian optimization is used because it’s good for exploration / exploitation of expensive black box (paraphrase, LLM). I would love to hear your thoughts and suggestions on this!

I've been teaching LLMs to play Magic: The Gathering recently, via MCP tools hooked up to the open-source XMage codebase. It's still pretty buggy and I think there's significant room for existing models to get better at it via tooling improvements, but it pretty much works today. The ratings for expensive frontier models are artificially low right now because I've been focusing on cheaper models until I work out the bugs, so they don't have a lot of games in the system.

PokerBench is my attempt at a new LLM benchmark wherein frontier models play Texas Hold'em in an arena setting. It also features a simulator to view individual games and observe how the different models reason about poker strategy. Opus/Haiku, Gemini Pro/Flash, GPT-5.2/5 mini, and Grok 4.1 Fast Reasoning have all been included. All code -> https://github.com/JoeAzar/pokerbench

I've been working on applying LLMs to long-context, verifiable problems over the past year, and today I'm releasing a benchmark of 62,000 pencil puzzles across 94 types (sudoku, nonori, slitherlink, etc.). The benchmark also allows for intermediate checks /rule breaks for all varieties at any step. I tested 51 models against a subset (300 puzzles) in two modes: single-shot (output the full solution) and agentic (iterate with verifier feedback). Some results: - Best model (GPT 5.2@xhigh) solves 56%. (~ half the puzzles are unsolved by any model) - Agentic solves average 29 turns. The…
