Head-to-head
qwen3:14b vs Claude Sonnet 5
Both models answered the same one-shot tasks under identical rules — no retries, answers published unedited. Two separate axes, never blended: does the code actually run, and how do blind-scored text answers hold up against a written gold answer. Frontier references sit outside the blind field and are deliberately unscored on text.
| Model | Runnable sims | Blind text avg | Failure modes |
|---|---|---|---|
| qwen3:14b | 28% (24/85) | 8.71 (38 scored) | ERR 39 · STAT 10 · BLANK 12 |
| Claude Sonnet 5 frontier reference | 100% (85/85) | unscored by design | — |
