Artificial Analysis launches AA-3D to benchmark AI models building interactive 3D scenes

What happened

Artificial Analysis launched AA-3D, a benchmark in which AI agents turn 55 written briefs across seven domains into interactive three.js scenes for blind human comparisons. Over 10,000 counted votes from over 1,000 panelists rank 21 models by Elo with 95% confidence intervals; Claude Sonnet 5.5, Claude Opus 5.5, GPT-6 Astra, and Claude Fable 5.1 are statistically tied at the top. Models receive up to three hours and 250 turns, and reported costs range from $0.20 to $32.08 per scene.
