Why this model scores 39.2

Broad general capability and China's competitive scale were material, while initial paid access, hosted controls and limited independent evaluation constrained deployment and verified autonomy.

MODEL-ATTRIBUTED EVIDENCE

News tied to ERNIE 4.0

The model score of 39.2 rates this model's risk profile. The overall Doom Index of 67.9 measures the complete temporally weighted evidence record. These values answer different questions.

NET MODEL-ATTRIBUTED INDEX CONTRIBUTION+0.11

Each article's current Doom Index contribution is divided equally among the exact models named on that article. This prevents multi-model evidence from being claimed in full on several model pages. Model risk scores use a bounded temporal offset around their technical profile, but never feed back into the overall index.
