AI overview

Epoch AI introduced SpireClimb to evaluate frontier AI models on Slay the Spire, reporting win rates above 90% at the easiest difficulty and up to 20% at the hardest. Epoch AI said frontier models could barely beat the game six months earlier. Epoch AI also said it had recorded more than a thousand runs of Slay the Spire and its sequel for SpireClimb and would publish them on YouTube over the coming weeks, with subtitles showing the models’ in-game thinking. The videos are reconstructed from model play data rather than recorded live. Epoch AI said it does not plan to add future models’ runs to the archive.
