Kimi K3.1 Pro joins FarmerBench 9th of 14: a mean of 48.1 over three seeds, between Claude Sonnet 5.5 (55.1) and DeepSeek V4.1 Flash (46.8).

FarmerBench gives a model six game-hours to build an economy in The Farmer Was Replaced, by writing code.

@mammetgzla i'll connect with ya

what you building?

[Richard Thomas @RichDevLab]

@patrick_kuhnke_ you know putting them in that order is bait Patrick

[Richard Thomas @RichDevLab]

@OfficialLoganK I wonder if this will overtake Argon on FarmerBench :O

[Richard Thomas @RichDevLab]

@GoogleDeepMind Gemini 4 Argon is currently #1 on FarmerBench. I wonder where this will place..

[Richard Thomas @RichDevLab]

Gemini 4 Argon is currently the highest rated model on FarmerBench and I think had a really unfair reception here on X.

Super interested to see how Gemini 4 Carbon looks.

[Logan Kilpatrick @OfficialLoganK]

Introducing Gemini 4 Carbon, it's a big jump over Argon which we released just 2 weeks ago.

Gemini 4 Carbon is SOTA on cyber, long horizon tasks, ranks #1 on Artificial Analysis V5, significantly improves on usability in domains like coding, and is more aligned.

@katesaikishore working on https://t.co/h211YdyW0Z right now, enjoying playing with harnesses and benchmarking models!

@iancccho really depends on the app but proven demand is golden

[Richard Thomas @RichDevLab]

@chaosengineerr good growth

can be difficult to find good content to interact with!

@usaydt_1 hi Usayd, what you building?

@saloniiio building anything cool?

lets connect!

[Richard Thomas @RichDevLab]

@alexvence_ your PFP made me think of Archer

[Richard Thomas @RichDevLab]

How it's made: Three.js + Rapier physics, baked at 240Hz and rendered frame by frame in headless Chrome. Each coin is a follower's profile pic. The metal depends on your own follower count, and the wear depends on how long you've followed. About 5 minutes to render; considerably longer to stop fiddling with it.

[Richard Thomas @RichDevLab]

This is a "let's connect" post wrapped in a physics simulation so it doesn't feel like one.

Crossed 200 followers. Every coin is one of you. The jar holds 500.

I build things in public and occasionally finish them. If you do too, say hi.

[Richard Thomas @RichDevLab]

@casparbuilds @X the usual suspects but the top of the board right now is surprisingly Gemini Argon

if you're interested, there's a leaderboard and each published model gets a writeup with some videos and stuff that talk about cool decisions it made in the challenge
