What the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index measures

Sources checked Oct 7, 2026 · How we research

It combines multiple evaluations into an overall index. The benchmark mix, weights and grading methods can change between versions.

When it is useful

Use it to survey performance across several kinds of task. Record the index version and the exact model configuration alongside the value.

What it cannot tell you

Do not join an old index score and a new version’s score into one growth curve without a compatible recalculation. The methodology’s version history documents substantial changes.

A PRACTICAL WAY TO READ THE SCORE

If one score uses a different exam mix, the difference can reflect both a stronger model and a changed test. Keep the two explanations separate.

Scores in this collection

The chart shows selected published results with a source, snapshot date and tested configuration. Coverage differs by benchmark. Missing scores stay blank; demo values are no longer shown.
