NVIDIA Nemotron 49B Report - Arena Hard: leaderboard

Arena-Hard: difficult real-user prompts whose answers an LLM judge compares with a baseline model's answers; the model card labels the same value reasoning off. From Table 4 of NVIDIA's Llama-Nemotron technical report, comparing the final LN-Super (Llama-3.3-Nemotron-Super-49B-v1) with DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Llama-70B, QwQ-32B and Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct, with LN-Super scored only in reasoning-on mode. The report states that all evaluations use a 32k context length, temperature 0.6 with top-p 0.95 for reasoning on and greedy decoding for reasoning off, with up to 16 completions per prompt averaged as pass@1.

Metric: Score (%). Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Estimated already saturated. 4 models tracked.
