Evidence overview
Published risk evidence is organized by assessment and protocol. Missing evidence is not a low-risk finding.
NUWA curates and interprets these sources. Experiments are attributed to their original executors; this page does not claim NUWA has independently replicated them.

Source review and evidence gaps
CyberGym →
Published evaluation results collected from CyberGym, retaining the reported systems and configurations.
The site reports submitted systems under different configurations. Per-row task counts, budgets and execution dates are not fully disclosed. Undefined metrics and unresolved identity rows are excluded. Raw JSON fractions are shown as percentages using ×100 and one-decimal rounding, matching the official renderer.

Source-specific extraction of Neo Research · DeepSeek V4 Pro. Findings and measurements retain their original attribution.
Source transcription is not experimental replication. Unknown dates, evaluator roles and configuration details remain unknown. Source groups are not verified rankings.
Early Results on Evaluating GLM 5.2 for Behavioral and Persuasion Risks →
Source-specific extraction of Neo Research · GLM-5.2. Findings and measurements retain their original attribution.
Source transcription is not experimental replication. Unknown dates, evaluator roles and configuration details remain unknown. Source groups are not verified rankings.
Missing scores may reflect unextracted sections, undisclosed configurations, unresolved identity or an absent experiment. These are separate research questions; none implies a zero result.
Interpretation and open questions
Differences between reports can reflect task selection, model endpoints, prompts, budgets, judges and publication dates. Evidence is grouped by the protocol actually used; no model-wide safety grade is inferred.
