VidMsg QA (YouTube Input): leaderboard

The VidMsg (2026) implicit-message multiple-choice probe run with native YouTube access, so the model receives each clip as video with audio rather than sampled frames: pick the intended message of a short clip from five same-topic options. Accuracy in percent (chance 20); higher is better.

Metric: Overall accuracy (%), five-option multiple choice: pick the intended implicit message of a short YouTube clip from distractors sampled within the same topic (one question per clip over 9 topics and 52 target messages; the per-topic cells imply 395 scored clips); chance 20; the model receives the clip through native YouTube URL access (video with audio) instead of sampled frames; higher is better. Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Around February 2027. 2 models tracked.
