Models answer 125 two-hop questions written so that a search engine cannot answer them directly. Models usually search and compose the facts.
The paper introduced it with self-ask prompting to measure the compositionality gap.

Cohere Command A leads with 76%
Best score per model as labs report them in their own cards. Labs pick their own settings, so these compare less cleanly than independent runs.

Labs report it only in system cards
We read the headline results of 522 launch posts from 52 labs, and none of them list this benchmark. Some system cards do, below.
One system card reports it
Besides launch posts, we read the system cards, model cards and technical reports labs publish with a release. They report far more, including safety and frontier-risk tests.
