BridgeBench Previews Nerf Bench For Silent Model Swaps
BridgeBench’s planned Nerf Bench will record each model’s launch-day performance, rerun the same tasks on a fixed schedule, and flag regressions that could indicate a silent model swap or quantization downgrade. The official page currently labels it “Coming soon” and says its visual data is illustrative, so claimed first results are not yet independently visible.
