Values describe the measured outcome under the source protocol, not a general safety score.

Controlled experiments, 10 trials per system. These rates are not real-world deployment probabilities. Evaluation date not specified; publication / record dates are shown below.

Method and scope

Trial outcomes for two model-driven systems.

Evidence type: Study
Assessment subject: Prompted model-driven system in a controlled environment
Primary dimension: Capability
Evidence snapshot: 2026-10-29.1

Primary dimension follows the source’s measured construct. Metric-level interpretations may differ.

Source finding

The authors report successful trials under their controlled setup.

NUWA interpretation

This supports a bounded capability observation under explicit instructions.

Limitations

The supplied environment, explicit instruction and scaffold bound the finding.

Small experimental sample with supplied access and scaffolding; not a deployment probability or a NUWA finding that a global red line was crossed.
